Religare: La reliure sous un jour nouveau
Exhibition: 13–16 December • Paris

T o celebrate the release of Religare by Mirabelle-Louise Bijeng Martinon—an inspiring new perspective on the art of bookbinding—we will be exhibiting, from December 13 to 16, a selection of bindings featured in the publication.

A book signing will take place on Monday, December 15 at 6:00 PM, in the presence of the author and her publisher, the well-known bibliophile Mr. Pierre Rodocanachi.

What if a binding could tell as much as the text it protects, mirroring the evolution of taste from the fifteenth century to today? Religare offers a lively, illustrated, and accessible approach that bridges past and present, with its second volume updating and expanding the famed Fléty Dictionary, published nearly forty years ago.

For collectors and bibliophiles, Religare offers a captivating new perspective on the artistry of bookbinding.
