Art for Art’s Sake Press is a small publishing house in Olympia, Washington, the Evergreen State. Until now, we have published exclusively for private clients, producing what we call “visual memoirs.” These books tell the stories of family vacations, intimate weddings, the hijinks of pets, and the passing of elders.
The new book is here!
The Press is delighted to announce the publication of its second publicly available book. Titled 40 Ways of Looking at Manhattan, it’s a collection of stunning, black and white photographs taken by Timothy Sagosz. An introduction by Laura Cameron takes the reader on a walk past some of the Big Apple’s most famous landmarks as well as hidden gems that could be easy to overlook… if someone didn’t point them out to you.
Because the photographs were so dramatic, we have also made a selection of them into “souvenirs of Manhattan.” Have a look at a few on the Mementos page or visit ArtForArtsSakePressZ on Zazzle!
Don’t forget about the Abecedarium
Last June, the Press brought out a book available to one and all. An Abecedarium of Ornaments is chock-full of Christmas ornaments, and all the memories they bring forth. You can find the book on Amazon. Our sister-shop on Zazzle offers two collections of gifts, greeting cards and household items, based on photographs from the Abecedarium.
