BASE at The Art Chapter 2026
Every year, for three days, BASE becomes a point of reference for those who see the book as a space for total expression:
from independent publishing to artist’s books, from experimental printing to small, self-produced gems.
Since 2017, BASE Milano and Studio Boîte ↗ have been curating a unique experience for those who see the book as a work of art.
A place to exchange ideas, contacts, and inspiration; an open ecosystem where professionals and emerging voices meet and create connections.”*.
The Art Chapter is not just a fair, but a living laboratory where publishing becomes a site of research.
Artist’s books, design, and typography blend into an open territory, creating new identities.
No conventions—only ideas looking for space.

Festina lente, ‘make haste slowly,’ is a Latin phrase attributed to Augustus, which brings together in an oxymoron two opposing concepts, speed and slowness, and refers to a way of acting without delay, yet with caution.
Presspoint embraces this motto as a symbol of the union between traditional, artisanal publishing, marked by slowness, and the speed of execution made possible by new digital technologies, while preserving the distinctive qualities of craftsmanship and the human relationship with clients, enabling a truly bespoke service.
