Turpe Art Books

Turpe Art Books

Turpe (Tu:rpæ) is a newborn publishing house from Milan. We focus on art books of every form, from graphic arts to photography. Our philosophy is to design beautiful books and print them using the most noble techniques. There's no trace of digital production in our publications, we want human beings to take care of them in every step of their existence. They're made by artisans in Italy.

Please describe what you intend to exhibit and any projects you wish to launch at Ink Paper + Print: Tokyo, our first book. The illustrations collected in it have been on show at the Society of Illustrators of NY and in Japan. It is part of the Tabula Turpis collection, a series of artist's books on the topic of traveling. It has been printed in 250 limited and numbered copies on Fedrigoni Vellum paper and with double gold Pantone.
