Item Description

Harris Photoguides offers an end-table book that promises to put a fresh smile on the face of poetry and photography lovers. This unique volume - autographed by the two Rochester artists, Photographer Robert S. Harris, and poet KC Francis - offers insight into the creative process of photographer and poet. They have joined separate creative talents into a single piece entitled 'Music for the Eyes.' The title pays homage to Ansel Adams, who often compared making a photographic negative to writing a musical score, and the making of a print to a musical performance. More than 50 exquisite photographs are matched with 50 sensuous poems to make this book the one the authors want the world to see and savor. The state-of-the-art reproductions and elite paper grades create images that appear matted and poised for a museum exhibit. Expect this blend of photography and poetry to nudge a reader to practice his/her art or collaborate with another artist. Make sure to bid as the book is going out of print - a collector's item to be sure.
