| M.K. Publishers is the personal publishing house
initiated in 1987 by Mikhail Karasik, an artist, pioneer, ideologist
and dedicated promoter of the genre of artist’s books in Russia.
It produces limited edition books and book-objects. Mikhail
Karasik has published numerous books and catalogues on artist’s
books and Russian avant-garde art of the early 20th century.
He has authored more than 30 articles on artist’s books and
modern art. Under his own imprint, M.K.- Kharmsizdat, Mikhail
Karasik initiated a series of avant-garde festivals in St. Petersburg,
including the Daniil Kharms festivals (1995-1998). Patronizing
artists from St. Petersburg, Moscow, Nizhny Novgorod and Lvov,
M.K. Publishers has brought Russian artist’s books to international
art fairs regularly since 1997. The almanac of printed graphic
art for bibliophiles, OTTISK Imprint, is also a brainchild of
Mikhail Karasik. |
