Publications and artists
Amongst the roughly three publications issued each year, the Look Back and Laugh portfolio most often includes drawings, as for example 'Reversed Archeology' by Geran Knol (BE), 'Peculiar Forest' by Kjersti Johanne Barli (NO) and 'Remember my labour of love' by Quentin Chambry from France.
There are also photograph collections (one such a work was a dialogue between the photographs of Jaka Bulc and the designs done by Zoran Pungerčar, encapsulated in a zine called 'You Might Even Enjoy It', 2015) and music releases, such as a tape by Oval Angle (BE), featuring a golden glitter tape with riso-printed covers. In 2014 LBAL published a book of poetry together with LUD Literatura. If one looks closely, semi-pornographic material from punk parties can also be found.
LBAL is regularly frequenting fairs and festivals all over Europe, among them Grafixx, the festival for paper and print in Antwerp, Miss Read – The Berlin Art Book Fair, Blind Date Convention, Festival of the Artist’s Book – and also various punk fests (like Fluff Fest in Czech Republic), which are very much connected with the zine culture.
Caffeine Hours
As of 2011 Look Back and Laugh is annually setting up Caffeine Hours fair for zines and printed materials at either Klub Menza pri koritu or Tovarna Rog.
