Meet some of the fantastic creators and exhibitors from last years fair! 📖❤️

Sun 16 Zine () is a self-produced publishing project, born from the idea of conveying and adapting photographic projects to a typographic sixteenth, the standard size used to test books and magazines. It is structured as a series of fanzines with the same technical characteristics (16 pages, 17x24 format, staple binding), but the difference lies in the story that is told. One story, sixteen pages, infinite issues.

Deniz Beşer (.beser) is a Vienna and Istanbul-based visual artist, curator, and independent publisher working across painting, drawing, zines, artist books, music, video, and ready-mades. He is the founder of Fanzineist Vienna Art Book & Zine Fair, co-founder of Heyt be! Fanzin, and co-founder & president of Analog Dialog, a Vienna-based art association.
