Boo-Hooray presents The Tattooed Dragon Meets The Wolfman – the science fiction fanzine collection of Lenny Kaye, member of The Patti Smith Group, legendary compiler of Nuggets, music historian, and a once-teenage SF fanzine editor/publisher/contributor. Ranging from 1941 to 1969, these fanzines represent ground zero for the zine explosion that was to come years later in rock, punk, skate, fashion, and art. Primarily published on mimeograph machines, science-fiction fanzines were initially small-run circulars traded amongst fans that offered criticism, letters to the editor, and gossip from the 1930s up until digital. This visionary amateur art is outside the realm of anything we've ever seen.

Bruce Silverstein Gallery presents Book by Book: 2nd Edition, an installation by the renowned book artist, Keith A. Smith. The exhibition will be comprised of unique and editioned books, prints, and photographs from the 1960s-2014. Additionally, Smith has created three images to be released as special editions in conjunction with the fair. Smith’s earliest books from the 1960s set the bar for the possibilities within this art form. Additionally, his influence as a teacher and author on the subjects of alternative bookbinding and structure is widespread; this exhibition will be an opportunity to view his acclaimed methods and process that have inspired artists over the decades.

Norwegian platform FRANK, run by the artists Liv Bugge and Sille Storihle, presents Marie Høeg Meets Klara Lidén. In the 1980s a box of glass negatives was found in a barn in Eastern Norway; the person behind these rediscovered images proved to be Marie Høeg (1866-1949), a Norwegian suffragist and photographer. In this exhibition, FRANK pairs Høeg’s photographs, challenging normative notions of gender in the late 19th and early 20th century, with work by contemporary Swedish artist Klara Lidén. The pairing suggests dislocating the narration of history as linear progression through humor, play, and sly performativity.

Iván Navarro and Hueso Records presents The Music Room, a site specific installation allowing fairgoers to listen to the work of non-musicians who maintain an audio practice as an extension of their body of work. The sounds that emerge out of these collaborative recordings are informed by the diverse visual and conceptual experiences from a range of artists, architects, graphic designers and thinkers.

Nieves presents an exhibition celebrating 10 Years of Nieves Zines. All 200 zines published since 2004 are shown together for the first time. Aaron Rose writes: "Nieves could possibly be considered the world’s first “zine” publishing company. Never before has one person and a black and white photocopier been responsible for such a prolific body of work spanning such a diverse group of artists”.
