‘We’ as the «Atelier It Plein 19» may have begun as ‘my atelier’ in 1974 (with an etching press and one 52 x 76 cm letter press), but since 1985 it changed to be a joined atelier for three artists working very closely together (specialising in book making from idea, till finished book, and international presentation).
Since then this has not changed too much, only from the original three there is just me left active (over 67 now and not ‘too active’ as the FAG - letterpress is concerned; the poor thing is to be revised, but the entire atelier is in a state of ‘redoing’ in order to have it ready for (hopefully) a next generation / but surely to have it open to the public with a museum function (the machines and the actual work that comes from them).

Book Art Museum is one of the most magical places in the city of Lodz. Its magic comes from the natural way in which books seem to combine their past with their future. This is a place where you can experience the versatility of book form, get as close as to touching the materials used, witness the old-style publishing process and get in touch with the gist of changes that books undergo throughout the centuries. Here in the museum new books come to life as well as exhibition projects and programmes using computer science for education and promotion purposes.
At the same time antique printing devices are being collected and restored, and the historical interiors are being renovated.

Die Lettertypen sind eine traditionelle Buchdruckerei die anspruchsvoll hochwertige Akzidenzdrucksachen nach Gutenbergmanier setzt und druckt, heutzutage mehr unter Letterpress bekannt. Gedruckt werden nicht nur die Klassiker wie Visitenkarten und Briefpapier, auch Bücher und Plakate im Format von >A0. Dies machen die Maschinen möglich, die teilweise über 160 Jahre alt sind, und jede dieser Maschinen erzählt ihre eigene Geschichte. Die Lettertypen sind kein Museum, alle Maschinen drucken und zeigen wie schön diese Handwerk ist.
Wichtiges Material ist nicht nur Papier, – das kann auch schon mal aus Italien oder Japan kommen – das fertige Druckgut ist immer die Summe aus Papier, Farbe, Typografie, handwerklichem Können und nicht zu letzt die Sorgfalt der Ausführung die dem Druckgut ein Erlebnis von fast allen Facetten der Haptik geben.
