SPRINT _\|/_ Independent Publishers and Artists’ Books Salon
is a non-profit artist-led platform devoted to investigate – in a sustainable environment and inclusive gaze – the multiple ways in which contents, supports and languages emerge in publishing. We welcome small projects and complex productions that approach experimentation, researching and archives with attitude.
Books as hooks to be hauled down new paths, discover alternative perspectives and approach multiple voices, often stressing forms and formats, in a dance of the perimeter and symphony of the sequence.
Every last weekend of November SPRINT main three-days festival program includes an Art Book Fair [SMABF], Talks, Workshops, Exhibitions, Performances and a Fundraising Party. The tables are cost-free for all selected exhibitors as a sign of tangible support to the community, as the access for the public. The first edition took place in Milano in 2013.
Since 2019 we promote the itinerant Warm-Up format to develop projects focused on unique titles and specific publishing adventures.

We use Apfel font designed by Luigi Gorlero for Collletttivo, an expanding group of designers working on type-based projects and occasionally releasing Open Source typefaces through the platform.
Apfel is vailable in Regular, Brukt and Fett cuts.
Apfel Brukt is a Collletttivo bespoke project made for SPRINT19, a low-carbon-footprint version of Apfel Regular, which allows to save your printer up to 18% of ink.
Check all the Colllettivo types here.
