The name Ally&Gargano represents some of the most successful advertising of the last half of the 20th century. In this book, founding partner Amil Gargano chronicles 46 advertising case studies that helped create one of the world’s most renowned ad agencies.

Their history begins with a then unknown import — Volvo — and reveals the strategy used to help establish it as an international icon. Ally&Gargano follows the daring strategies they used to change the perceptions of corporations IBM and Travelers Insurance; reestablish Pan Am's worldwide leadership; transform Saab to national status; and create memorable ads for many other clients, including Dunkin' Donuts, Timberland, Calvin Klein, Time magazine, FedEx and Polaroid.

Although the book retails for $220, Graphis is making Ally&Gargano available to our customers at a special discounted price of $70 when they order from our online store.

Gargano has come out with a painstakingly researched, lucidly written and strikingly art directed book.

Henry Leutwyler has always been interested in exploring the stories behind the possessions people acquire over a lifetime. In his upcoming exhibit at the Foley Gallery, Neverland Lost – A Portrait of Michael Jackson, he chronicles the accumulations of the King Of Pop.

Back in 2009, while Neverland Ranch was being packed away in preparation for a public auction, Leutwyler was given the opportunity to photograph the objects from Jackson's estate. What began as a project to photograph the pop star’s white glove evolved into a desire to document the hidden life of Michael Jackson.

"It is said that the Pharaohs built tombs to reveal their lives to future generations,” Leutwyler told The London Sunday Times. "Michael Jackson sacrificed his childhood to the calling of his musical gift. Neverland was the pyramid he constructed to a lost childhood."

Some of the images from this series, which range from Jackson’s jewel-encrusted shoe to his studded white glove, were published as Gold Winners in Graphis’ Photography Annual 2010, which is available for purchase through our Store.

Leutwyler is an internationally acclaimed and award-winning photographer. His work has appeared in the New York Times Magazine, Vogue, Vanity Fair and Esquire.

The exhibition will run February 24 to April 2. For more information, please visit the official website by clicking here.
