Designer Kurt Woerpel has been creating zines for around five years after taking Duncan Hamilton’s Independent Publishing Primer class at the Pratt Institute. “Directly after graduating Pratt, my friends and I applied to Printed Matter’s New York Art Book Fair with some of our student work and came up with the name TXTbooks in an effort to sound more official than we were,” explains Kurt. “It worked, and we ended up attending, sneaking back into Pratt to use their Riso to produce the stock needed to participate. It went over well and since then we have participated annually in the NY Art Book Fair and a handful of other fairs around the US.”
