Long Live Saint Mark's Bookshop! For more than 30 years, this East Village landmark has been a fixture for literary and culturally-minded New Yorkers and intellectual pilgrims from around the world. For many generations of New Yorkers, it's impossible to imagine the city without this hub of printed ideas.
And yet, in recent years due to economic pressures and shifts in the way people buy books, the store has struggled to maintain its vitality despite an outpouring of community support in the the form of cash mobs, crowd-funding and more. Luckily, friends and fans have always come through, even at the eleventh hour.
For our part, we have worked with the staff at
Saint Mark's to create a special selection of our very best art and gift books for the holiday season. We are honored to collaborate, even in small part, wherever the
bookstore resides, now or in the future. Please visit the
ARTBOOK pop-up store at
Saint Mark's this month and heed what has become the rallying cry of independents around the country:
"FIND IT HERE, BUY IT HERE, KEEP US HERE!"
