Framer Framed is happy to announce an art book fair by Rijksakademie on Saturday 13 December 2025. Visitors can find unique printed matter and support the international artist community of Amsterdam.
For the second edition of their book fair, Rijksakademie van beeldende kunsten has invited more than forty alumni, residents and special guests, showing and selling self-made publications, prints, posters, records, cassettes and unexpected publication formats. The day includes a full programme of talks, performances and workshops.
In addition to a Framer Framed booth, Rijksakademie alum Winnie Herbstein gives a presentation about her practice and book, Slamming Doors. On Falling Out and Fighting Back in a Housing Crisis (2025), co-published by Framer Framed and The University of Edinburgh. Winnie was a fellow for the research project Contemporary Conflict in 2024, organised collaboratively by Framer Framed and the Department of Political Science at the University of Amsterdam. Her presentation at the book fair takes place in the Reading Room from 16:00 – 16:20.

About VIVA VIVA
Rooted in the Latin word vivere (‘to live’), viva has long been part of artistic and cultural expressions: a call in the streets, in protests, in celebrations, and in moments of togetherness. In a time of fragmented narratives and institutional fatigue, VIVA VIVA occupies a space between joy, resistance and insistence, offering a platform to affirm values and practices that we as artists and collectives consider meaningful.
VIVA VIVA is both a statement of presence and a call for continuity: to recognise, hear and share the stories that shape our lives and communities. It is a space to engage with peers and the public, amplifying our individual and collective voice.
VIVA VIVA is an initiative of artist and Rijksakademie alum Reyhan Lál in collaboration with Rijksakademie residents, alumni, team and special guests.
