International Juried Exhibition “Bible Bound”
Time: May 1 – September 1, 2026
Location: Museum of Printing, Haverhill, MA, the USA
Curator: Ania Gilmore
“The Bible has had a profound impact on humanity, literature, art, history, and culture for over 2,000 years. As one of the oldest and most influential texts, it has shaped civilizations, religious practices, and cultural expressions. From illuminated manuscripts of the Middle Ages to Johannes Gutenberg’s first printed Bible in 1455, the Bible has played a key role in the development of printing and bookmaking.
The Museum of Printing in Haverhill, MA, invites artists to submit miniature artist books inspired by the Bible. The exhibition will explore its lasting impact through the lens of contemporary book arts. Selected works will be juried for inclusion in a four-month exhibition in 2026, alongside the newly unveiled museum “Rare Bible Room” that hosts a unique collection of over 100 rare Bibles and 30 Bible leaves.”
