The current situation imposes so many challenges, yet we still can find something good about these times: more time for reading and enjoying books. And, instead of doing that all alone in the solitude of our homes, we want to offer a space where we can meet and share our passion for art, books and art books.

Until the end of February, if you find time for a book, A—Z offers its exhibition space in front of our publishing premises as a space where you can envision art books as portable exhibitions to bridge the gap in time until great art exhibitions are open again. So, come and browse through art books, sit down, read at length, enjoy a cup of tea, and share the time and space with us. There will be over 100 books from The Green Box as well as a selection of outstanding titles from various book designers available to read, and some to borrow for free, or to take home forever at a fair price.

Moreover, TIME FOR BOOKS is about sharing the knowledge and love for books, so at a scheduled and announced time, you will be able to meet graphic designers, view their art books and artistic installations of their work. With them you can engage in a one-to-one conversation about their making of books, get insights, tips, tricks, or attend mini workshops. Amongst the book designers to present their work are: Katja Gretzinger, Lamm & Kirch, Anja Lutz, Andreas Koch, Albert Coers, Georg Rutishauser and many more.
