The CODEX Foundation exists to preserve and promote the contemporary handmade book as a work of art and to bring to public recognition the artists, the fine craft, and the rich history of the civilization of the book.

CODEX Book Art Fair
& Symposium
The International Biennial CODEX Book Art Fair & Symposium focuses on serving practitioners, scholars, curators, collectors, students, and all those who are curious newcomers or avid enthusiasts of the art of the book. We bring together the international community to exhibit the work and to educate the public about the rich traditions and contemporary practices surrounding artists’ books and fine press publications — where craft and concept unite into exemplary works of art.
