Color lithograph; 19 x 32 inches. Edition of 40 numbered copies, signed by the poet and artist. Printed by master lithographer Maurice Sanchez and published by Glenn Horowitz Bookseller in 1983, "Perche no spero" and "McKane's Falls" are two of many collaborations between artist, documentary filmmaker, and author Robert Perkins and some of the 20th century's best poets - among them, Basil Bunting, James Merrill, Seamus Heaney, John Ashbery, Octavio Paz, and Robert Lowell. Of the artist Robert Perkins, James Merrill has said that his "great success is to have created a narrative medium in which the heaviest burden floats easily, like a canoe in water." For "McKane's Falls," Merrill worked on lithographic stones in Sanchez's studio, and for "Perche no spero," Bunting at home with wax tablets. Each production is an arresting visual interpretation of the poet's words. Click here for full details of this book, to ask a question or to buy it on-line.
