From October 22 to 25, 2026, Offprint Paris returns to Césure, bringing together an international community of independent publishers, artists, designers, and thinkers who challenge conventions and expand the possibilities of print. Spanning art, architecture, design, the humanities, and visual culture, Offprint Paris celebrates publishing as a vital space for artistic experimentation, critical inquiry, and cultural independence.
At a time when the production and circulation of knowledge are undergoing profound transformations, independent publishing remains an essential platform for creative freedom and alternative perspectives. Beyond its material form, the publication becomes a vehicle for new ideas, a space for intellectual exchange, and a powerful means of shaping cultural discourse.
Through a distinctive selection of publishers working across disciplines and geographies, Offprint Paris highlights the diversity and ingenuity of contemporary editorial practices. From artist books and experimental formats to critical essays, photography, and research-driven publications, the fair offers a compelling exploration of how publishing continues to redefine the relationships between art, knowledge, and society.
More than a publishing fair, Offprint is a space for discovery and encounters, connecting emerging voices with established independent initiatives and fostering dialogue across artistic and intellectual communities. A vibrant public program of talks, conversations, book signings, and encounters will further engage with the ideas and practices shaping contemporary culture.
In an increasingly digital and generative world, Offprint Paris reaffirms the enduring significance of print as a medium for preserving and circulating ideas and as an active force in their creation. Offprint Paris is a celebration of independent thought, artistic freedom, and the transformative potential of publishing.
