Here is bibliographical detail about the catalogue to the current exhibition at Bibliotheca Wittockiana, the museum in Brussels devoted to bookbindings: Une vie, une collection. Cinq siècles d'art et d'histoire à travers le livre et sa reliure. Exposition à la Bibliotheca Wittockiana du 10 octobre 2008 au 28 février 2009. Dijon, Editions Faton (Arts & Métiers du livre), 2008. ISBN 978-2-87844-118-5. Texts by Michel Wittock, Paul Culot, Annie De Coster, and Jérôme Callais.
The exhibition not only presents bookbindings from 5 centuries, but also highlights 25 years of bibliophile passion and collecting by the Bibliotheca Wittockiana's founder, Michel Wittock.
The bibliophile visitor who was thinking of a nice getaway might consider Brussels, and instead of letting a myriad of lights blind him or her at overcrowded Chrismas markets, might consider taking a stroll to an elegant corner of town, and being overwhelmed by these riches. During this exhibition, the museum will also be open on Sundays.
