Savvy (Sebastian Patiño) designed the identity for the sixth edition of Index Art Book Fair at Galeria Kurimanzutto in Mexico City: social media, signs, posters, badges, booklets, and tote bags. The illustrations are by Jesh Martin.
The typography uses Serial C (Thin, Regular, Bold) by Dum Dum Studio. The Folio-like grotesk with inktraps for the logo and the sans serif used for body copy are yet to be identified. [Edit: it’s a customized Acid Grotesk, see comments.]

I thought it was PolySans, but no.
That looks a lot like the lowercase 'a’ on Folch Studio’s Acid Grotesk, sans the inktraps, though. I wonder if it’s a custom cut?
Well spotted, Johann! Looks like a winner to me. I’ve asked Folch.
Pablo of Folch kindly confirmed that it’s indeed Acid Grotesk, customized by the designer.
Ohh, that’s shame. I’ve been looking for a font with those inktraps. Do any of you have a tip for one like that?
Joanna, ABC Whyte Inktrap is a popular one that has these characteristics. See also the related typefaces listed on its page.
