Item Details
Description
RUPPERSBERG, ALLEN. The Singing Posters: Allen Ginsberg's Howl, Parts II & III. Approximately 100 colored commercial advertising posters. 14 x 22 inches; 360 x 560 mm. Printed by Colby Poster Printing Co., Los Angeles on flexible card stock. Comprises the follow-up to the 2003 New York edition. Number 22 of 30 examples, signed twice by the artist, recto of first poster and verso of last (with limitation indication). Ruppersberg has written out Ginsberg's poem both normally and phonetically, so that “I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by madness” becomes “Y SAW thuh BEST MYNDS uhv my je-nuh-RAY-shin di-STOYED BY Mad-nis.” The Singing Posters is both an homage to the celebrated Beat poet and a tongue-in-cheek attempt to make “Howl” accessible to future generations.-Hamburg: Juergen Becker, 2005
