Open Call: Artist Books for Dublin Art Book Fair 2025

The artist book section at Dublin Art Book Fair (DABF) features books made by contemporary artists, designers, art writers, and others, who experiment with the medium of the book and its potential for artistic expression. Each year, DABF hosts an impressive selection of exceptional artist books, both printed and hand-made. The artist books received through the open call display a versatility in which the book form is celebrated, transforming the Fair into a space for creativity.

In 2025, Dublin Art Book Fair is guest curated by lecturer in Irish literature and Head of Teaching and Learning at Institute of Art, Design, and Technology, Dun Laoghaire, Selina Guinness.
