The exhibition presents books by authors published under the curatorship of the Book[e]lab platform. Book[e]lab works at the intersection of contemporary art and photobook design, focusing on limited-edition artist’s books. Each project combines visual narrative with material form, where content and design come together to create a cohesive artistic statement. The platform encourages experimentation, exploring the connection between image, structure, and tactility, and challenging traditional ideas of what a book can be. By collaborating with artists, photographers, designers, as well as paper manufacturers and printing technologists, it creates an environment for dialogue and innovation.

This exhibition features a selection of artist’s books where the concept is not just presented but physically embodied in the book’s structure and design. Each book acts as an independent piece, where content and form are closely integrated into a unified artistic expression.

Alongside the exhibition, a series of workshops and discussions will offer a space for dialogue, bringing together everyone involved in the photobook creation process. The goal is to encourage an exchange of ideas, exploring the book as both an artistic medium and a tangible expression of the author’s vision.
