Since 1997, 1975 artists from 100 countries have submitted about 4,000 artist books. The international jury selected 988 works from 69 countries.
During the 29 years of the Triennial’s existence, artist books have been exhibited in Vilnius, Nida, Plungė (Lithuania), Leipzig, Frankfurt, Hamburg, Rheine and Cologne (Germany), Lille (France), Silkeborg (Denmark), Venice, Vercelli, Urbino (Italy), Seoul (South Korea), Halmstad (Sweden), Salzburg (Austria), Evanston, Fredonia, Cleveland (USA) and Granada (Spain).
It is sad to say, but the “International Artist’s Book Triennial Vilnius”, which began in 1997, has come to an end. With the “10th Artist’s Book Triennial Vilnius 2024”, we are stopping our activities because, after 33 years of active artistic educational activities in Lithuania and around the world, we receive very little financial and moral support from Lithuanian art institutions. And that is too little to continue the Triennial.
