1000 piece puzzle featuring the artwork of acclaimed Ferndale, Washington based artist Andrea Joyce Heimer.
Andrea Joyce Heimer’s richly detailed paintings are infused with the dreamlike imagery of a child’s escape into fantasy, and rendered in a flat, paper-doll-like style. The artist’s narratives evoke both a sense of playfulness and profound introspection that make her work utterly unique yet instantly relatable. Let’s face it, we’ve all been stood up at a rodeo in Montana at one point or another in our lives. We just don’t remember it quite like Heimer does.
Andrea Joyce Heimer was born in Great Falls, MT and lives in Ferndale, WA. Her work has been exhibited at the CICA Vancouver, the Whatcom Museum, the Northwest Museum, and at the Megan Mulrooney Gallery in Los Angeles.
A century after Theodore Dreiser and F. Scott Fitzgerald mapped the American Dream’s promise and peril, Lauren Greenfield’s latest photographic monograph, The Queen of Versailles: An American Allegory, arrives in bookstores to visually recapture the origin story behind her hit 2012 documentary film and the 2025 Broadway musical—collectively transforming a documentary mirror onto the national stage, where wealth, overreach, and reality-TV culture converge in one distinctly American aria. Named by The New York Times as “America’s foremost visual chronicler of the plutocracy,” and the best-selling author of four award-winning monographs that incisively deconstruct turn-of-the-century America (Fast Forward, Girl Culture, Thin, Generation Wealth), Greenfield now presents The Queen of Versailles: An American Allegory—the first publication of the complete photographic series from the iconic documentary, featuring essays by Greenfield and longtime collaborator and curator Trudy Wilner-Stack.
For more than 40 years, Benita VanWinkle has traveled the country photographing hometown movie theaters and drive-ins built before 1965 as part of her ongoing documentary project Please Remain Standing—a visual appeal to preserve these historic treasures. VanWinkle has recorded the astonishing range of these iconic structures, from repurposed Quonset huts to grand movie palaces. Her photographs depict magnificent Art Deco detailing and Mayan-style ornamentation, neon-lit theater marquees as well as the whimsical road signs that still entice moviegoers to once ubiquitous drive-ins. An impressive 512 full-page photographs, selected from the thousands VanWinkle has made to date, document 395 present and former movie theaters and drive-ins and conjure a time when Americans embraced the communal experience of going out to the movies—a few hours in which shared laughter and tears unite strangers. The book honors this beloved national pastime and highlights the continuing importance of movie theaters in preserving a town’s sense of community.
Focusing on Calouste Gulbenkian’s determination to preserve his cherished art collection intact after his death, this book tells the story of the creation of the Gulbenkian Museum in Lisbon. It begins with the efforts of the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation, founded in 1956, to reunite an exceptional art collection then dispersed between Paris, Washington D.C. and London. The book examines the legal, diplomatic and practical measures that made this mission possible and follows the planning of a museum shaped by the most advanced museological thinking of the 1950s and 1960s, whereby the artworks themselves guided decisions across architecture, exhibition design and museography. It also highlights the key roles played by the first generation of Portuguese women curators and international consultants, from cataloguing the works to trial exhibitions and final installation. Ultimately, the volume shows how the Foundation interpreted and translated Gulbenkian’s taste and character into museum form, resulting in a unique and enduring institution.
The Inside series focuses on the mission and organization of an institution rather than the collections within it – the context in which it operates and the people who make it work. It tells the story of how an institution has evolved through its people, history, architecture, purpose and practice.
Reveals: Portraits from Five Continents showcases Wendy Newman’s intimate photographs from an expansive, soul-searching journey across global terrains. Raised in White Plains, New York and shaped early by an innate sense of style that led to a decades-long career at Harper’s Bazaar and Prada, Newman ultimately turned away from the fashion industry in pursuit of something more meaningful: an authentic understanding of people and cultures beyond the surface.
Spanning 11 years of global travel, the book compiles a remarkable body of portrait photography captured across diverse regions—from Asia and South America to Africa and the Middle East—culminating in her time in Uganda. Guided and influenced by her studies at the International Center of Photography and mentorship from renowned photographers such as Robert Caputo, Phil Borges, and Steve McCurry, Newman developed a portrait style rooted in presence and human connection.
Organized into five thematic chapters—rivers, mountains, deserts, islands, and jungles—the book uses geography as a framework to explore the shared humanity that transcends place. More than a collection of photographs, Newman’s work reflects an emotional journey, capturing fleeting yet profound encounters and silent, powerful exchanges.
“In the beginning, there was tagging and writing on the walls.” From Style Writing to Art is the first anthology of Street Art ever published worldwide. Magda Danysz, the internationally renowned Street Art gallerist, guides the reader on this immersive journey into the heart of the most interesting artistic movement at the turn of the century. This book grapples with Style Writing, Graffiti, and Street Art.

Each period is complete with extensive biographies and analysis covering 50 legendary artists including Seen, JR, Miss Van, JonOne, Shepard Fairey, Quik, Blade, Doze Green, and Keith Haring. “Let me repeat myself,” Danysz writes, “if only for the sceptic eye, for the blind and lost or for the latecomers who ve simply just missed the boat: I believe this type of urban art to be the most important artistic movement at the turn of the century.”

First cousin to the current Emperor of Japan, H.I.H. Prince Norihito Takamado was a many-faceted man, a sportsman, educator, amateur naturalist, and a lover of the arts in all forms.

In this volume of reminiscences, Stephen Comee draws upon memories of his friendship with The Prince to present his many sides and many accomplishments, revealing the real person behind the official persona. The prince’s interest in and knowledge of the arts is attested to through excerpts from his own essays and speeches and from interviews with great artists from operatic soprano Dame Kiri Te Kanawa to Kabuki superstar Ennosuke Ichikawa III to American musician-environmentalist Paul Winter. Readers of this intimate portrait will learn more about Japan and its people through learning about one of that nation’s greatest modern advocates of international cultural exchange, environmental protection, and world peace.
