Proteus Gowanus offers an interdisciplinary assortment of art, objects, and books for sale, culled from its yearlong thematic exhibits (2005/6 Travel, 2006/7 Libraries, 2007/8 Games), and from the resources of its seven collaborating non-profit organizations. In addition the Proteus store offers a selection of books for sale from
The Artistbook Library, curated by Maddy Rosenberg.
