Giulia 'BLocal' Riva's passion for graffiti & street art is well known. Her mission? To unveil the artistic and rebellious heart of cities through an independent street art blog BLocal, which has become the media partner of important street art festivals around Europe. That's why we are more than happy to welcome her for a book signing of As Seen on the Streets of Paris, a book that seamlessly combines the depth of a travel guide with the visual splendor of an art photography collection. Featuring over 250 striking photographs by Paolo Giannotti and insights from 13 Parisian street artists, As Seen on the Streets of Paris invites readers to embark on a journey through the French capital’s urban art landscape. The book is available in two formats: The Art Photography Book, a hardcover edition printed on premium-quality paper showcasing vibrant images, perfect for art lovers, The Travel Guide, a portable A5 paperback with lightweight paper, perfect for travelers exploring Paris' urban art scene on foot. Both editions feature the same content: 278 pages that blend visual storytelling with practical tools for exploring Paris’ most compelling street art locations.   📚 Launch – As Seen on the Streets of Paris by Giulia 'BLocal' Riva🗓 Friday, April 25 | 🕕 6–8 PM📍 Le Grand Jeu Bookstore

In a world where independent publications—books, magazines, zines, and flyers—are proliferating at an unprecedented pace, the question of their preservation has become a pressing challenge. For over two decades, Christian Omodeo has been exploring the fringes of publishing. An art historian by training, an obsessive collector, and a book advisor, he tracks down, documents, and elevates the printed traces of subcultures. His work—at the crossroads of academic research and bibliophilic activism—questions the place of these publications in cultural history and examines preservation strategies suited to materials essential in shaping collective imaginaries. Through Le Grand Jeu bookstore and Paperware, a new platform dedicated to archiving independent publishing, he advocates for a living, engaged approach to books—where collecting also means preserving, transmitting, and making visible. 📚 Talk – Archiving Subcultures: The History of Le Grand Jeu🗓 Wednesday, May 28 | 🕕 5.30–6.30 PM (doors open at 5.10)📍 The National Library of Sweden’s auditorium in Humlegården, Stockholm
