119b. The 6th Biennial Codex Book Fair and Symposium was held February 5-8 in Richmond, California. The Codex Foundation was conceived in 2005 by Peter Rutledge Koch, fine press printer, and Susan Filter, paper conservator, to create an environment for promoting the book as a work of art. This is accomplished by bringing together the Best of the Best book artists and fine press printers from around the world to share their work, explore new and old concepts, and to start an on-going conversation about the fate and future of the book as an essential art form. Lines of Force: the Hand, the Book & the Body Electric Dr. Betty Bright is a writer, curator and historian who helped to start Minnesota Center for Book Arts (MCBA) in 1985 and authored No Longer Innocent: Book Art in America 1960-1980 (Granary Press, 2005).
