Anno Domini presents... ART OF ZINES 2010 featuring hundreds of zines from basements, bedrooms and midnight copy shops throughout the US and abroad. We love zines… those little diy, cut-and-paste, copied-on-the-cheap, hand-folded, self-distributed gems that continue to surface because someone, somewhere feels the need to express themselves. It's that simple. Zines exist and fleurish outside the mainstream with no particular interest whether you're paying attention or not. According to Chip Rowe, creator of Chip's Closet Cleaner, "They're Tinkertoys for malcontents. They're obsessed with obsession. They're extraordinary and ordinary. They're about strangeness but since it's usually happening somewhere else you're kind of relieved." Opening Reception: First Friday, February 5, 2010 from 8 p.m. 'til late Featured Zine sellers: Marc Arsenault, John Bobst, Silvia Chenault, Michael Foley, Ben Henderson, Chris Kardambikis, M Undead, Yumiko Miyagawa, Tomas Moniz, Kyle Pellet, Mahoney Perkins, Louis Schmidt, Matthew Seigel, Kate Steward & Meagan Zupancic Special thanks to: Davida Gypsy Breier, Cafe Royal, Cantab Publishing, Faesthetic, Gimme Brains Distro, Islands Fold, Razor Cake and TTC Music & Performance: Adam Lynn, Zoe Boekbinder (Vermillion LIes), Corpus Callosum
