The Guardian’s Sarah Moroz has written an excellent feature on James and Karla Murray’s Store Front II – A History Preserved: The Disappearing Face of New York, which is featured today on the newspaper’s home page. The piece, which can be read here, reports on the Murray’s history with New York store front photography, their current relationships with the shops and shop owners featured in their projects, and great coverage of Store Front II itself, which Moroz says contains “endless gems” collected in its stories and photos. Be sure to take a moment and explore the article for yourself to learn more about the Murrays and their hopes for the city they love.
See James and Karla at Rizzoli Bookstore on November 23rd in a moderated conversation and book signing in celebration of Store Front II; if you can’t make it, you can get your own copy of Store Front II from Gingko Press.
