Subject: International bookbinding exhibit

An international exhibition entitled The book of Origins, organized by 
Les Amis de la Reliure d’Art du Canada, will be held from September 
10th  to October 2nd 2005 at the Gabrielle-Roy Library in Quebec City 
and will show the works of a hundred binders from around the world.

A Huron creation myth collected in the 1940s by famous ethnologist 
Marius Barbeau serves as the basis for the Livre des Origines, a 
literary interpretation of the myth by writer André Ricard. The final 
work, a luxury edition in a ready-to-bind format illustrated with 
original lithographs by artist Carmelle Martineau, is now available for 
sale.

We kindly ask if it would be possible to distribute this information

we created two web pages where all pertinent information is accessible.
