After last year's incredibly successful fair, Brooklyn's own Cannonball Press has again assembled an extraordinary menagerie of graphic artists under one roof, who will be present, displaying their prints, and selling them for $50 or less for two days only. Long-time champions of the affordable art cause, Cannonball Press has brought together these great artists as part of New York Fine Art Print Week so that New York can have a chance to see first-hand the incredible resurgence in affordable fine art printing that is happening across the country.
An entertaining sideshow will take place during the fair, featuring traditional Mexican music from Grupo Diamante Norteno, "deathgrass" titans the Black Death All-stars, a print-o-centric fashion show, emcee David Rees (of Get Your War On fame), a performance by the Amazing Hancock Brothers, and on-the-spot printing with Drive-By Press, which operates a mobile press out of the back of their van.

Also, unrelated: a week from today, John Giorno will be participating in a wonderful evening at the Rubin Museum in Chelsea, in honor of his new Soft Skull book: Subduing Demons in America.
"Subduing Demons in America" Book Party
Fri, Nov 7, 7:30pm
The Rubin Museum
John Giorno will be reading from his new book, "Subduing Demons in America." The reading will be followed by a book signing in the Lounge area of the Rubin Museum, and will likely devolve into an extended celebration of demons, America, subduing, and books in general. The whole thing lasts until 10 PM. This event is free and open to the public. Also, a special bonus-event, set to occur directly after the party/demon/signing: Rosanne Cash and Joe Henry IN the Rubin Theater, and at 9:30, Francine Prose introducing the epic, the unmatched, the Criterion-collected and unanimously celebrated "Battle of Algiers." See the museum's website for more: http://www.rmanyc.org
But how, you ask, do I get to this "Rubin Museum"? Public Transportation is aloe vera gel to your aching sunburn of a mind: By Subway: A, C and E to 14th St. (8th Avenue) 1 to 18th St. (7th Avenue) 1, 2, 3 to 14th St. (7th Avenue) F and V to 14th St. (6th Avenue) L to 14th St. (6th Avenue) N, R, Q, W, 4, 5 and 6 to 14th St. Union Square By Bus: * B20 to corner of 7th Avenue and 17th St. The Museum is at the corner of 7th Avenue and West 17th Street, and the entrance is on 17th Street between 6th and 7th Avenues.
