Dear bookbinder!
Estonian Association of Designer Bookbinders are happy to invite you to take part in the 7th International Exhibition of Artistic Bookbinding Scripta manent.
This time we are celebrating the 90th birthday of our world-famous Estonian composer Arvo Pärt and the 500th anniversary of the first book published in Estonian.
Scripta Manent VII will be open from September 11th to November 16th, 2025 at Great Guilt Hall of Estonian History Museum.
200 numbered copies of printed texts of Arvo Pärt`s music „In principio. The Word in Arvo Pärt’s Music“ are printed for this exhibition. The book sheds light on a significant aspect of Pärt’s creation – on texts in the composer’s work, on the selection of the texts and also on the Word in a broader and deeper sense. This book brings together 81 texts in nine languages, complete with English translations.
