Lucien Walker et Aurélia Costes
Book and graphic arts restorer
Carouge

About

After obtaining his CFC (French Federal Certificate of Professional Excellence) in bookbinding with Michel Magnin as his apprenticeship master, Lucien Walker opened his workshop specializing in book restoration in Carouge in 2009. In 2014, he was joined by Aurélia Costes, an art restorer trained at the École Nationale Supérieure d'Arts Visuels La Cambre in Brussels, Belgium.

From 16th-century Bibles to "Bécassine" albums, from antique maps to art books, Lucien Walker and Aurélia Costes rescue documents by repeating gestures from another time. Between the chimes of the Place du Marché and the countless trams passing by, this is the story of the transmission of knowledge and passion.
