Our projects bridge the divide between documentary and expressive forms in books, exhibitions, on stage, in sound & electronic media. We are committed to fostering understanding across all cultures and generations through artistic productions and education. We bring our work to theaters, museums, schools, festivals, and universities.

New BOOK Spring 2026

Letter Box: The Geometry of Loss a new Artist Book
$35 PLUS SHIPPING AND HANDLING

BUY NOW pre-order

LETTER BOX: The Geometry of Loss is a deeply moving and beautiful book that addresses how a person can deal with personal loss, feel the bottomless pain, yet manage to move on. Written by former New York Times reporter Rick Black, it is the story of a young man’s coming to grips with the unexpected death of his mother from cancer. The sparse poetic prose—which consists of only a few words per page—is choreographed for the stage of the page by visual literature pioneer Warren Lehrer. His typographic setting gives delicate and surprising form to the interior, emotional and metaphorical underpinnings of Black’s words. Together, the writing and visuals create an impactful and distinctively cinematic book experience that can help readers of all ages process their own loss.

Thanks to the New York State Council on the Arts for support of this project.
