About

Jarko is a Gothenburg (Sweden) based zine that started in 2008. Our aim is to promote contemporary artists that work with image as communication. All the zines are made in small quantities, both by hand and professional printed. We work with theme based issues and solo artist zines, which are distributed at fairs, exhibitions and in our web shop.

THE COLLECTION

In 2011 we started our collection. During the amount of exhibition time we've got, we wanted to find ourselfs a good way to show zines. So we started the collection, that will be a permanent and mobile one. It will be documented and shown here on our website, as well as in exhibitions.
