A momentary space for books
For two weeks in the end of August, Paradise becomes a platform of encounter and gathering, collecting and connecting books and people in The Hague. Friends and strangers – all welcome.
It is an offer for The Hague’s publishing and book community to meet in a space, to exchange, encounter each other and anyone else who is interested in books. There will be three rooms that open up different conversations around the book and publishing, a café space to hang out and have a chat with each other.
The event is facilitated by Hannah Schleifer (KABK Photography alumna 2024 and founder of ringelpress), Vincent van Baar (graphic designer and editorial design tutor at KABK) and Malva Askerup (graphic design student at KABK) and is supported by the KABK Photography Department.
Participants are Hein Eberson, Burros Books, Lula Valetta, Stencilwerck, Huis van het Boek, Stroom Den Haag, West, Punk Art Zine, ringelpress, HOK Gallery, painpub, Salvo, Heden Galerie
The event will round up with a summer book market on Saturday 31 August, together with a launch of the publication made in the office.
Paradise
With the goal of providing a platform for talent, West The Hague and the Royal Academy of Art, The Hague (Kabk) have teamed up to create Paradise. Here young artists are given the opportunity to present their work and develop their presentation skills.
