Art books
Art books are printed in small runs, priced like the art, and then forgotten by their publishers. Catalogues vanish when the exhibition closes. Below is what we hold today: artist monographs, exhibition catalogues, histories of art from cave walls onward, and a little theory on why any of it matters. Stock sits in London and New York and changes daily.
If the catalogue you want closed with its show in 1994, that is normal. Send us the title and we will look for it.
