About





Dada Issues [collective press] is an art collective and independent publishing house based out of Kjupuktuk (Halifax), Nova Scotia with a focus on creating affordable, limited-run art books, alongside 1/1 art objects that subvert and pervert publishing. We publish artist books, runs of experimental fiction, multiples, ephemera, pamphlets, and propaganda. We are interested in the dissemination of local knowledge and committed to publishing text and image based works that have roots in art, critical theory, and experimental poetics. Run from a queer, feminist, environmentalist, anti-capitalist, and anti-colonialist perspective, we prioritize thinking through these theories within our publications. It is through artist-led production based on materiality and care that we create our publications. 
As artists ourselves, we noticed two fundamental issues with the world of art-book publishing. 
1: A reliance on the artist initiating the cost of production.
2: The rise in the cost of physical books and media. 

Dada Issues Collective Press was created to help curb the pitfalls that artists face in sharing their work in physical forms, and to provide a community around physical art books.
