Miniature books

Since 1980s Ksenevich has been collecting rare and miniature books. These are books of the early 19th century, pocket-sized, containing a variety of subjects, including those published in different languages in Belarus and many other countries all over the world: composite books containing works of classics of Belarusian, Russian and world poetry, selected prose, reference books and encyclopedias, researches in the branch of history and art history, comic editions and children's books, books of the Bible and Christian literature, as well as cook, chess and philosophy books. Ksenevich considers a miniature book to be a high-water mark of printing art. Publishing of such books requires delicate cooperation of highly professional artists, print workers, designers. In an interview he pointed out the following: "miniature books are a trademark of the country's printing industry. And Belarus is famous for its books. First books were published pocket-sized in Minsk in 1833. And this tradition has existed ever since: many publishing houses issue wonderful miniature books, which win awards at international competitions". Evgeny Ksenevich more than once organized exhibitions of miniature books from his collection. The most significant exhibitions are: Exhibition in the Petrus Brovka State Literary Museum (2009); exhibition of miniature books in the State Museum of the History of Belarusian Literature, commemorating the 520th birthday of Francisk Skorina (2010).
