MGIP was founded in 1977 as the Motovun Group Association by a small group of publishers from Yugoslavia, Switzerland, Belgium and other countries along the Adriatic coast. The original idea was to publish books, to produce co-editions of illustrated books, and to publish them across the Iron Curtain. Three years later, the city of Motovun in Yugoslavia became the main base, and so it was adopted as the group’s name. In 2015, the MGA was renamed the Motovun Group of International Publishers – MGIP – to symbolise what the group stands for and has remained to this day. Its members publish some 4,000 books each year, two-thirds of which are illustrated. Its publishers include many leading names in the market for illustrated books, including Rizzoli, Thames & Hudson, Pavilion Books, MoMa, Mercatorfonds, and Roli Books.
