Clic Bookstore & Gallery

Beautiful store at a cute corner in little Italy, well designed, range of price points. Staff on the friendly side.

Firstly, I do have to say that this place has really beautiful prints, art books and various odds and ends for your home.
Unfortunately, one or two of the sales people that work here are so unfriendly that I am constantly reminded why I never buy anything. Today I was walking around the store with a friend who picked up a sheep toy animal made of boiled wool. Upon setting it down, the toy gently tipped over. This was not a delicate item but merely a stuffed animal. The French woman (who I presume is the owner) proceeded to wildly roll her eyes and exhale extremely loudly and did this about 3 separate time while we re positioned the toy. After my friend profusely apologized (unnecessarily I may add, this was not some sort of relic or fabergé egg) the woman was so rude and cold that there was no chance we would be sticking around. What an unprofessional and foolish way to treat your customers.

Fabulous Gallery, Book Store and Clothing & Accessory Store. Everyone is so nice, and they represent some amazing up and coming artists. Great Find!

This was an accidental find. Was stopped dead on the Broome Street sidewalk by the pictures from the Bande à Part exhibit that I could see through the storefront. Walked in, curious, and spent an enjoyable half-​hour looking at unexpectedly fabulous pictures of the New York Underground scene. Gallery owner graciously allowed me to take pictures of the space, too, which is uncommon, in my experience.
If every show they put on is as content-​rich as this one was, this place might justify a visit to SoHo every time I’m in Manhattan. I plan on going back just to check, next time.

This is a really wonderful art/​photo gallery and bookshop, owned by Christiane Celle of Calypso St. Barth fame. I saw a few pieces from their current exhibition, Jody Morlock’s Dig, from the windows as I walked by and I knew I had to go in! Besides the art work, they have quite a selection of photography books and a few smaller prints to buy as well.

I went to see Antoine Verglas’ show in Aug 09. Great small gallery collection of other photographers were showing there as well and I was really impressed that the curator knew so much of the technical details and stylistic approaches of the artists. Small but wonderful hard-​to-​find book selection. I definitely came out of there inspired!
