LIBEReFORME
Libri d’artista al Museo della Carta di Pescia

This exhibition showcases 18 rare and artistic books from various Italian artists: Marco Bagnoli, Stefania Balocco, Gianluigi Balsebre, Paola Carrara, Sonia Costantini, Fabio Cresci, Andrea Granchi, Riccardo Guarneri, Francesco Landucci, Gianni Lillo, Lucia Marcucci, Paolo Masi, Remo Salvadori, Elisabetta Scarpini, Marcello Scarselli, Alessandro Secci, Vittorio Tolu, Giorgio Ulivi.

The exhibition explores the concept of the book as an art form, that changes the original function of the object as a support for written documents into a tool for creativity and artistic communication. As the finissage of the exhibition on 3rd September, a paper art workshop will take place together with one of the artists.

The Museo della Carta hosts this exhibition in the light of its institutional mission that focuses not only on the preservation of paper artifacts and traditions but also on promoting new art forms that are based on paper manufacturing.
