KIOSK , traveling archive designed by Christoph Keller [1] , German graphic artist and publisher, was exhibited in over 20 locations worldwide [2] before joining in the fall of 2008, the permanent collection of the Library Art (Art Library) Berlin. It includes much of what was produced in the field of independent publishing, more than 6500 publications. Christoph Keller designed January 2008 version of "compressed", entitled Beyond Kiosk , which has been carefully selected and required a large curatorial work. The exhibition is a rare opportunity to see some examples of the most significant, independent art publishing today, with a selection of over 600 pounds , magazines, fanzines, LPs, CDs and Videos.

This new form of exposure does finally the most significant projects in the field of independent publishing these ten years. It's a very conscious choice, based on criteria that connect the intellectual content and / or artistic editing and graphics transcripts. This new form of archive focuses on opportunities for publication and distribution of alternative and offers a reflection on the ideas , motivations and strategies that motivate the art projects developed in and beyond printed form.

At each exhibition, Beyond Kiosk comes in a new form. The archive will be available at the Silos in a specially designed and redesigned exclusively instead. These documents are open to consultation, making it a valuable resource for students, lecturers, artists and audiences in general.
