Buy-Sellf catalogs - 1998/2004

In 1998, the Zébra3 association made a name for itself thanks to the publication of the first Buy-Sellf mail-order art catalog, which currently includes 4 issues. Each catalog brings together, presents and distributes non-industrialized productions, research prototypes resulting from an artistic process, more generally from an experiment. The first intention was to create an alternative presentation space to art galleries, a direct link between the creator and the collector or user. Through this approach crystallized the desire to test the models and the limits of the consumer society. The review allowed the confrontation of productions from various horizons and a large number of practices are represented through objects, paintings, sculptures, photographs, books, CD-Roms, furniture.
