Haiku on 42nd Street Poster Donation: $35 Tax Deduction: $30 Media: Full-Color Poster on Quality Paper Dimensions: 25" x 22" |
||
Artist Information |
The Haiku on 42nd Street Project is semi-legendary in haiku circles. In 1996, during the decline of New York City’s Times Square, haiku began to appear on the marquees of the abandoned theatres. The work of the 26 poets involved were captured on film and converted to this poster commemorating New York’s “moment in time as a public gallery, a crazy state of grace and poetry.” The poster is now a collector’s item. We will ship one to you ready to frame. We have a limited number of this collector’s item remaining, so don’t delay. | ||

Artist Information |
Ellen Peckham is one of the most versatile and awarded artists ever to have turned her attentions to the demands of haiga, and her work in chine collé is unique in both Eastern and Western art history. She has read, published and exhibited in the U.S., Europe, and Latin America. As a result of an exhibition at Instituto Cultural Peruano Norteamericano (ICPNA) in Lima, Peru in 2009 and of readings of her work in Spanish, her bi-lingual book, Recording Loss/Registro de una Perdida, was published there and introduced at the 2010 International Feria de Libros. She frequently uses both art forms in a single work, the text decorating and explicating and the image illuminating. From March 2 to April 14, 2012, the many facets of her work were exhibited at the Dalet Gallery in Philadelphia. A related illustrated biography, Continuum (actually in the form of collage), was published at that time. Her archives of drafts, edits and art are collected at the Harry Ransom Center for the Humanities at the University of Texas at Austin and a 7-minute visual biography, Parallel Vocabularies, is available on DVD and on her website. | ||
