Ted Greenwald and Hal Saulson : Two Wrongs

In Ted Greenwald's poetry, tradition is never more than an extension of innovation, history never more than an engaggement with the present, and commonplace never more than a glimpse at something extraordinary. Building on New York's remarkable history of painter and poet collaborations, this is striking art and text project features nearly thirty paintings and poems by two seasoned artists.

The dimensions of the images are true to the original works of art. The fonts (Palatino and Michelangelo) were designed by Hermann Zapf. In the handbound paperback edition, sparkling metallic covers were printed letterpress and the images and text were printed offset.

Sixty hardcover copies were bound by hand and signed by the painter and poet. Printed on pure cotton Concord rag paper in full color by Booksmart Studios. Ten copies enclosed in archival slipcase include ten original handwritten poems by Greenwald tucked into the rear cover. There are 250 paperback copies.
