No Need For Sleep
No Need For Sleep: an exhibition of visual art by zine makers and the zines they produce, is an exhibition of original art and zines by artists from around the country. This exhibition celebrates these artists, their independent productions, and the do-it-yourself culture of zines.
These artists create work both inside and outside the art world, while practicing diverse approaches including printmaking, animation, public art, and drawing. Many are currently producing zines, while some long time zine makers are working on projects including books and collaborative animation dvd releases.
