WITTENBORN ART BOOKS was founded in 1941 by George Wittenborn in New York City. The company was renowned as a publisher of important art books, notably The Documents of Modern Art, and as the preeminent art book store in America. In 1996, Wittenborn merged with Alan Wofsy Fine Arts of San Francisco.
Wittenborn buys, sells and exchanges art reference books, deluxe editions, original prints & posters, autographs and ephemera. Wittenborn also publishes and distributes works with original graphics. Distributed art reference publications are diverse and include the Harvard bibliographies of illustrated books of the Renaissance in France and Italy; the corpus of European Stained Glass in America; and a wide range of catalogues raisonnés and other art reference works. Distributed graphics include a large selection of works by Leonard Baskin, Ben Shahn, Jack Levine and Frank Lloyd Wright among others.
