1¢ LIFE has come to be regarded as one of the greatest artists’ books of the time. This collection of poems produced by Walasse Ting is liberally illustrated with brilliant original lithographs by a total of 28 celebrated artists including Andy Warhol and Roy Lichtenstein. Ting’s own lithographs of the 1960’s simply explode onto the page in an exhilarating riot of color, resonating perfectly with his fiery poetry.
This exhibition will be the first national exhibition the Cultural Center has hosted. It comes at an exciting time of growth and change as the Cultural Center prepares to transition into a new, state-of-the-art facility.
