Untied United

Guy Schraenen presented the publications of his publishing house at several international fairs such the Basel Art Fair, the Art Fair Frankfurt or the International Book Fair Frankfurt. It was through those presentations at fairs, that publishers, distributors and creators established the artists' book as a collector's item. Art museums and libraries with a historical book collection started deliberately adding to their collections in the direction of the conceptual artists' book. 

To support each other and made sure that their publications and their commitment to artists' books become more visible, Guy Schraenen cofounded the group United Untied. Other members were Boekie Woekie Amsterdam, Edition Hansjörg Mayer, Edition and Gallery Hundertmark, Rainer Verlag, Stop-Over-Press and Wiens Laden & Verlag Berlin. The group was invited to several international venues.
