Folium Digital (Jointly organised by VDA, VDAÖ and VEBUKU)

The jointly organised rare book fair by Germany, Austria and Switzerland

New situations take us on new paths: the virtual rare book fair of the German-speaking antiquarian book trade associations invites book and art collectors on a virtual discovery tour! Antiquarian bookshops and galleries from Austria, Switzerland and Germany, together with numerous international colleagues, offer treasures of book art, autographs, illustrated works and prints.

Start of the virtual fair on 10 June 2021 at 2 pm:

The stock of all exhibitors will be released here from 10 June at 2 p.m. and will be available until midnight of 12 June, when the platform, like a real fair, will be closed again. Exhibitors can offer up to 20 items and, after selling stock, exhibitors will place new items online during the fair. It is well worth visiting the platform again during the fair.

"Folium in focus: conversations about rare books and other antiquarian treasures".

Do you miss the personal encounters? Join our series of talks with antiquarian booksellers who will present some of their most beautiful treasures in the run-up to the fair. Feel free to ask your questions in the following conversation and meet bibliophiles and like-minded people virtually.

Detailed information and links to register for the webinars will be released soon. The talks will be held predominantly in German language but the team is able to translate or summarise in English and answer your questions.

Dates:
26 May 2021
2 June 2021
9 June 2021

The world of art and bibliophilia knows no boundaries. We look forward to seeing you!
