Where else can you find the Jean-Michel Basquiat sleeve for K-Rob vs. Rammellzee’s legendary Hip Hop cut “Beat Bop” hanging on the wall like a work of art in the very same building where Jean-Michel’s original paintings once hung during his lifetime? The NY Art Book Fair, naturally.

Printed Matter’s famed book festival returns to MoMA PS1 this weekend, and it will literally take your breath away, with a line up of more than 370 booksellers, antiquarians, artists, institutions, and independent publishers from 28 countries around the globe. The fair, which runs through 9pm this evening and tomorrow, September 24, from 11am–7pm, is a phenomenal opportunity to catch up with your faves and check out the latest happenings.

The NY Art Book Fair covers all price points, whether you wish to pay what you want for the phenomenal zines by Research and Destroy New York City or you have 5Gs to pony up for a David Hammons original painting of Michael Stewart, at the Printed Matter Rare and Out of Print booth.
