Balfour Books is one of my favourite independent bookstores in this city. I remember buying children’s books (before I had children) at their old location further west on College. These days, I rarely make it inside, but I always stop to admire the window. Anna Sui, Fortuny, John Rawlings, Bjarne Melgaard and Kimsooja were all there this week. I came home and read a little bit about Kimsooja –– she’s a multidisciplinary artist based in New York, Paris and Seoul –– and looked up Bjarne Melgaard, too. Melgaard is a Norwegian artist based in New York City, and his work immediately reminds me of Basquiat’s. This all from a window display — imagine if I made more time to walk through the door.
