Fanzines: procesos gráficos editoriales impresos de proyectos autogestionados como herramienta de expresión.

Abstract

This paper analyzes how fanzines, as self-managed editorial graphic processes, maintain their expressive and cultural function through their materiality and manual processes in a globalized context that transforms the notions of personal and collective, based on a qualitative approach and a case study of three different creative fanzines present at the Feria Papel Caliente 2025, We also evaluated the area that the fair provided for the creation of a personalized editorial product based on fragments of the exhibitors' creations, allowing us to understand how the materiality of the fanzines retains its personal and collective expressive value in globalized contexts. This analysis highlights the possible ways in which expression is found as an essential part of fanzines as self-managed products of contemporary editorial design that resist the visual standardization arising from globalism.
