- Used
- Hardcover
- Signed
Ithaca, New York:: Olive Branch Press,, 2014.. Edition of 10. Four 31 x 19" prints folded to form four sections of 8 pages, 7.75 x 9.5". Each section slips into an accordion binding. Colophon constitutes the end page. Intaglio prints. Letterpress on Japanese paper. Laid in 10.5 x 10.5" cloth-covered lidded box with title on cover. Numbered. Signed by the poet and artist. Delirium" is a collaboration between artist Kumi Korf and poet Bhisham Bherwani. The four prints were originally hang-on-the=wall art, which Korf cut and folded. Kumi Korf: "The title is from a poem by Bhisham Bherwani. Four intaglio prints were created for this project. Each print was folded to make a book, and the poet has this to say: "Nature has been a perennial, inexhaustible mother lode for poets from Virgil to Robert Frost. I was under the spell of Japanese Haiku masters and of American imagist and symbolist poets such as Ezra Pound, Wallace Stevens, and William Carlos Williams when I composed 'Delirium.' The poem traces recurring cycles in nature, such as those of life, from birth to death, and of seasons, from spring to winter. 'Delirium,' a sequence of twelve segments propelled by such passages of life and time, found a natural counterpoint in Kumi's sensibility, in her visual aesthetic that embodies both precision and mystery." Rebecca Rafferty, The Visual Artworker, July 24, 2014: "Kumi's prints are biomorphic abstractions - gentle curves and attractive color which she develops intuitively in series - one thing leads to another. Her art creates a field for a poem written by Bhisham Bherwani." Cavankerry Press: "Bhisham Bherwani studied Fine Arts at New England College. He is also a graduate of New York University and Cornell University, and the recipient of fellowships and scholarships from The Bread Loaf Writers' Conference, New England College, and The Frost Place, as well as a residency fellowship at the Constance Saltonstall Foundation. He was born in Bombay, India; he lives in New York City.

Sixty woodcuts printed by the artist on Masa paper in editions varying in size from 25 to 50 of which numbers 11 - 20 were bound by the artist in a hand-sewn hardcover book format. Prints tipped onto Arches cover text paper. Each print numbered, titled, and signed. Art Hazelwood: "From 1986 to 1993 I traveled around the world, living in Europe and Asia and in various parts of the States. My primary interest however was traveling in Asia. The intensity of travel lured me on to see more and more. Experiences of people and places left their mark and I have tried to give back some of that feeling. The Tibetan nomads, Vietnamese 'cyclo' drivers, Japanese 'salary man,' Sikhs, Thais, and Uygurs that make up this series are the actors on an impossibly crowded world stage. It is this sometimes overwhelming encounter with the world that these prints seek to express. "Prints…

Graphite frottages on vellum over foil titles on 140lbs rag paper. Covers with quarter Kraft-tex leather binding. Title label on front board. Signed and numbered. Dirk Hagner: "A series of 11 exquisite graphite rubbings of breads from around the world. All pieces are one-of-kind images, gathered in a hand-made book binding. This project combines the oldest cultural staple of human kind, bread, with the oldest way of printmaking, rubbings, or as printmakers call it, frottage*." Using printmaking and rubbings, Hagner presents a lovely visual discourse of bread of the world. It is a reminder of how much bread and the partaking of it together is so much apart of the many cultures of our world. This simple act of sharing bread has a sense of friendliness and comfortable interaction whether it is a bagel, a baguette, or a bun.

Description:
Austin: Texas Writers Project, 2000. Original . Broadside. FINE. 24 x 36 inches, printed on high quality coated stock with metalic ink. Shipped- rolled in heavy tube. This fabulous poster was created especially for the featured author of Texas Writers Month in 2000 held in Austin, Texas by graphic designer Marc English. It is printed on heavy high quality coated stock in metalic inks: silver and bronze and laid over a duotone photograph of the rugged Big Bend country of West Texas. The poster quotes a long scene from McCarthy's BLOOD MERIDIAN with drops of bronze red blood for emphasis. This is a stunning visual and carries the impact of the original text depicting a scene of horror as the savages line up on horseback along the ridge their glass beads and painted bodies caught forever in the sun's hot glare as they anticipate the massacre that would follow. Only McCarthy could make this scene so vivid you might have to put the book down and never finish it.
