NEW By Michele Cohen Photographed by Stan Ries Foreword by Michael Bloomberg Public Art for Public Schools is an important document, recording one hundred years of cultural history in New York City, evolving from the City Beautiful movement at the turn of the twentieth century to cutting-edge contemporary art commissioned in conjunction with the Percent for Art program. There is an extraordinary treasury of artwork, more than a centurys worth, within the walls of city schools. But because it is scattered through all boroughs, in buildings not typically open to the public, there has been no way until now to appreciate the breadth of the collection or the depth of it.

A Novel By Jane Kamensky and Jill Lepore Blindspot is a novel of painting, passion, and politics in the age of the American Revolution. Written with wit and exuberance by longtime friends and accomplished historians, the novel is at once fiction and history, mystery and love story, tragedy and farce. Filled with the bawdy, satirical sensibility of the eighteenth century and set in the boisterous, rebellious Boston of 1764, Blindspot ingeniously weaves together both real historical documentsfrom runaway slave ads to Acts of Parliamentand fakes: the memoirs of a charming and talented Scottish portrait painter and notorious libertine named Stewart Jameson; and the letters of Fanny Easton, a fallen woman, from one of Bostons best families, who disguises herself as a boy to become Jamesons defiant and seductive apprentice.

Turner Born Under Saturn

The Character and Conduct of Artists By Rudolf Wittkower and Margot Wittkower Introduction by Joseph Connors Born Under Saturn explores the history of the familiar idea that artistic inspiration is a form of madness, directly expressed in artists unhappy and eccentric lives.

Where the skilled artisan had worked under the sign of light-fingered Mercury, the ambitious artist identified himself with the mysterious and brooding Saturn.

From standard practices in stock and assignment photography to special one-time decisions such as acquiring a digital workstation, this business bible provides the latest answers to any legal or business question an aspiring or professional photographer can ask.
In 1984, photographer Peter Feldstein set out to photograph every resident of Oxford, Iowa (pop. 676). Twenty years later, Feldstein invited writer Stephen G. Bloom to join him in search of the same residents. Considered side-by-side, the portraits reveal the inevitable transformations of aging: wider waistlines, wrinkled skin, eyeglasses, and bowed backs. The intricate web of human connections between neighbors, friends, and family, is the mainstay of small town American life, a disappearing culture that is captured in Feldsteins candid portraiture and Blooms astonishing rural storytelling.
