The 2015 Melbourne Art Book Fair was the first of a series of annual art book events developed by the NGV. From 1–3 May 2015, the inaugural Melbourne Art Book Fair brought together emerging and established publishers, artists, writers and designers. Stallholders at the Melbourne Art Book Fair provided visitors with access to artists’ books, catalogues and monographs, periodicals and independent publications, showcasing new types of art publishing, in the one venue at NGV International.
