We are happy to invite you to exhibitions featuring self publications and artists books as well as artistic "products in development". DIK Fagazine and it's publisher - Karol Radziszewski will be participating in both shows.

The exhibition in Museum of Contemporary Art Vojvodina will present some selected issues of DIK Fagazine and pictures taken last year during Karol Radziszewski's residency in Novi Sad.
