Learn To Read. A Surviving History of Printed Matter

I wish this was a more interesting show than it was (It closes today so you won't be able to see it even if you wanted to) But I really can do without 100's of framed letters, press releases and minutes of meetings fill many of the walls and make for some boring wallpaper. To be far there is also much visual material, posters, multiples, prints and of course books that fills and overflows the gallery spaces. There was also some artists and small collectives doing on site publishing in a large room but they seemed to me uninviting and not very interested in being one on one with the public. I always enjoy a visit to their current bookstore, but glad to see that they will be moving to larger quarters in the near future.
