About This Item
Toronto: Lumiere Press, 2007. Fine with custom [presentation bookplate. 1/2 coarse woven cloth. One of 1500 copies, this one un-numbered but presentation copy. "The story of the Howard Greenberg Gallery, vividly chronicled by New York art writer Lyle Rexer; Greenberg's reflections on selected works from his personal collection; and a chronology of the exhibition history of the gallery, have provided an unprecedented canvas on which to merge fine book making and photographic scholarship. The centrepiece of the book is a portfolio of 25 masterful photographs drawn from Greenberg's personal collection. Each image is paired with Greenberg's thoughtful assessments and recollections. As characterized by Michael Torosian in his introduction, "The portfolio is the synthesis of erudition and passion, a connoisseur's survey, and it's also a memoir, a look back at some of the touchstones that have made up a collection, a career and a life." Twenty-five years of exhibitions are detailed in a compilation that encapsulates the history of the gallery." A great book suited to its subject, most handsomely produced by the esteemed Lumiere Press.
