This weekend, The Library of Our Encounters is moving to Истерика & Be Duende’s Pop-Up Market in our favorite art space KO-OP! We’ll present a selection of books and publications on art, architecture, literature, film, theatre, science fiction, and philosophy — all in the company of a myriad of wonderful Bulgarian artists, creators, and organizations. The textual and spatial arrangement created in collaboration with Christoph Szalay and Fotini Lazaridou-Hatzigoga will also be transported to KO-OP’s lovely sunlit space! We can’t wait to share the beauty of numerous new encounters — between books and people, between words, silences, and ideas.

Some of the other fantastic participants include Subcultura Studio, Fine Acts, Vagina Matters, LILE, 45 Str., Atelier Couchette, Freshape, Shulka, Pottery & Poetry, Laterna Records, Handmaid Artisan Skincare, Glim & Glam, and Alina Papazova; you’ll also be able to find unique vintage clothing pieces and a selection of jewellery, interior decor, and prints from www.beduende.com. So come join us in this whirlpool of design, illustration, ceramics, fashion, music, books, and more, and more..
