Dreams Through the Glass: Windows from Bergdorf Goodman by Linda Fargo. Assouline, NY, 2003. 1st Ed hardcover with dust jacket. Each window is a fantastic tableau, a narrative, a piece of theater inviting the viewer into rich imaginary worlds of fashion and surrealistic luxury. Window design is a vanishing metier, but it remains an enduring art form providing rare views through the glass into fantastic realms of dreams and fantasy. In these pages, Linda Fargo, the renowned window artist for Bergdorf Goodman, opens up her portfolio of magical tableaux created especially for this crown jewel of the retail world. Her palette is wonderfully rich and eclectic, juxtaposing relics of the past and the present, symbols of art and literature, western culture and exotic lands, moving easily between the marvelous and the everyday. These windows continue to astonish and delight all who flock to them for the traditional annual Christmas displays...

Published by the Museum of Modern Art, 1st edition, New York, 1945. Hardback, English text. This exhibition catalogue is the first critical monograph issued by MoMA on a photographer. It was published in conjunction with a planned series of one-man focal retrospectives to bring some of the prominent American and European photographers to the fore, and photography has since then entered the category of fine art as far as MoMA is concerned. A catalyst and legend among his peers and the photography world at large, Strand’s revelatory photography captures a subtle change of mood, a slipt-second thought; his ‘nature morta’ of a kitchen bowl...
