The Flights of Icarus

 

The Flights of Icarus, Lehmkuhl w/ Dean & Dean
Paper Tiger, 1977
159 pp, color & b/w illustrations

Space rock meets space art! A large format 12″x12″ volume compiled and edited by the Dean brothers, with intermittent pages of beat poetry from Lehmkuhl. My copy is a bit dogged-eared from age, but it doesn’t detract from the variety of talent and artistic medium within its pages.  I especially appreciate the artists’ brief bios at the beginning of the book, and that each art piece is credited and named.

The Deans are still creatively active, but what happened to Donald Lehmkuhl?

    I love the gentle reminder that a garden isn’t something you just finish over a weekend, but a slow conversation with the seasons. In a world where we expect everything to happen instantly, tending to the soil really teaches you the quiet value of patience. It’s funny how cultivating a small patch of green often ends up grounding you more than anything else.
