Photographer Craig Bagno will present and sign his new book New York City Anonymous. Bagno offers an alternative perspective on New York City, one that focuses on solitude and quiet, fleeting moments often missed. In his signature style, he assumes the perspective of a passerby, a shadowy apparition-- positioned between, beside, behind--often depicting others as they turn away, hurry past, and wander off.
Photographer Pie Aerts will present and sign his new book Tales from the Road Less Traveled. From the deep jungles of West Papua to the high plains of Bolivia, from the tiniest Himalayan mountain villages to the beating heart of the Okavango Delta, Pie ventures well off the beaten track to capture real people and everyday experiences in extraordinary habitats around the globe.The avid Instagrammer now presents his best travel photographs in Tales from the Roads Less Traveled.

Finkel is the author of It Speaks to Me, which features 50 leading artists discussing artworks of their choice, including Mark Bradford on Mark Rothko, David Hockney on Edgar Degas, and Shirin Neshat on Alice Neel. Shirin Neshat: I Will Greet the Sun Again is the monograph accompanying the artist's largest exhibition to date, organized by the Broad. Covering thirty years of her career, the book offers a rare glimpse into the evolution of Neshat’s artistic journey as she explores topics of exile, displacement, and identity.
The New York Landmarks Conservancy cordially invites you to Bricks and Brownstone: The New York Row House, a book talk with author Patrick W.Ciccone.
The classic book Bricks & Brownstone, the first and still the only volume to examine in depth the changing form and varied architectural styles of the much-loved New York City row house, or brownstone, was first published in 1972. That edition helped pave the way for a brownstone revival that has transformed New York's historic neighborhoods over the past half-century.
This revised and expanded edition, published by Rizzoli, revisits the classic comprehensively, with updated text and additional chapters, and an abundance of specially commissioned color photography.

About I am New York:
“I am New York” is an art book, bursting with color and vivacity as much as it is a story book as well as being an inspirational, non-traditional guide to the city that lets the reader discover Gotham from a refreshing perspective as they inevitably become drawn into the urban sketches and that unique vibe that is singular to the city that never sleeps. From bridges to bagels and so much in between, Carlo Stanga introduces readers to one of the most beloved cities in the world and through his visual storytelling makes us understand why it is indeed so beloved.
