New York Art Bookstore Recommendations (1)πβ¨
Mast Books - 72 Avenue A π’π A treasure trove of art, design, and film books, as well as fashion magazines. They also have a curated selection of second-hand books, though prices are generally on the higher side. Occasionally, they host small exhibitions. I've found some truly beautiful poetry collections, numerous photography books, theoretical texts on photography, and fashion magazines here. π’π It's not uncommon to bump into artists, musicians, and interesting New Yorkers. I particularly love the poetry sectionβit's so peaceful and lovely. Definitely worth spending time exploring. When I left New York, the owner was about to launch a canvas bagβI'll have to get one next time. A definite NYC favorite spot! π Dashwood Books - 33 Bond St π’π A haven for professional photography books, it's a paradise for both professional photographers and photography enthusiasts (though I personally find more of what I'm looking for at Mast Books). One of the founders is Japanese, so they have an extensive collection of Japanese photography books. π’π They frequently host signing events, with notable photographers like Juergen Teller making appearances. It's important to keep an eye on their events. π·β¨ Bookmarc - 400 Bleecker St A more general and compact bookstore. #NewYork π½π
