About the Exchange Portfolio:
For each portfolio we ask a variety of national and international book artists and fine press printers if they would contribute a broadside, print, or work on paper in an edition of 75 copies. With these contributions we create an elegant boxed edition of unique works that serve as examples of printing techniques and concepts being explored by contemporary makers in the field. You will find everything from etchings and wood engravings with poetry, to handmade paper and alternative photographic processes—and much more. The artist/printer may submit anything from a single folio to a small pamphlet, and each piece goes into a letterpress printed folio with a biography and statement by the maker. The portfolios are themed and each person or collaborative team approaches the subject differently. Each contributor gets a finished boxed edition of prints as thanks for their generous work, and these portfolios are used as fundraisers to help subsidize our publishing program. They are great teaching tools and also can be used for instant exhibitions! A purchase of a portfolio goes a long way to supporting publishing at The CODEX Foundation. Read more here
