"The recent opening of a standalone book store by esteemed gallerist Marian Goodman is confirmation, if any were needed, that in Paris the art world and the book world frequently overlap," Apollo magazine observed in a feature on the city where artists "are often bookish; books invariably beautiful."
In addition to the new Librairie Marian Goodman ("Marian has always wanted to open a bookshop," said gallery director Nicolas Nahab."), Apollo showcased Yvon Lambert's bookshop (He "sees his work within the long Parisian tradition of great art dealer-publishers."), Section 7 Books ("tiny but brilliant"), and Le Bal ("an independent non-profit space that combines gallery, café and bookshop").
