getting art inspiration from a library

As an artbook seller I often see people who come to the store to do research or get inspiration. I’m always happy to help whoever but why limit yourself to only what is available at a specialized book store? It is easier than you might think to access an art library and art librarians are the best people I know. I’m linking to worldcat, a tool that will help you identify what library holds the title you are interested in. Here’s a list of libraries in NYC that have amazing collections and that are open to researchers (that’s you) just make sure you make an appointment and provide a list of books from their catalogue before arriving. -Moma (appointments are limited to certain days, can take a couple weeks to get appointments, you need to provide list of books in advance using their own tool) -Watson at the Met (you do not need an appointment but you do need to request books in advance) -NYPL Library (their Art and achitecture branch is in the building with the lions, you need an appointment, but they are easy to get, they will help yo but always better to ask for book in advance) -ICP library (photobooks only, appointments can take two weeks to get, you should request books in advance)

The museum of the city of new york is an underrated crown jewel 💎

Music and photography and graffiti oh my! Not that any of you PI.FYIers needed the excuse to culturally enrich yourselves 😘 but come to the way Upper East and Get Lifted The new interactive music exhibit in particular (Songs of New York) is a fun litlte excursion: it features music from more than 100 artists, from the 1920s through the present, showcasing styles from bebop to K-pop across every genre, borough and musical moment of the past 100+ years. I well and truly was today years old when I discovered this.

cutting your own bangs

many times it will not go well; this is a lesson in humility and resilience and your friends will have something to laugh at. they will grow out faster than you think. when the fringe trim is a success, the world becomes a more beautiful place.

Coffee at night

ideally consumed with others, after a meal, sitting in a circular formation, with some sort of cookie.
