Tuesday Edition: Jason Polan
14"x11" ($50) | 24"x20" ($500) | 40"x30" ($2000)
Wind-whipped Tuesday greetings, my collector friends! Today's the kind of day where everyone is talking about the weather, not just me. We all arrived at JBP HQ in various states of bedragglement, our good humor tested by inside out umbrellas and water-logged subway lines. Things are cozy and humming indoors though, topped off with a buzz of anticipation. We've been pretty excited to introduce today's edition, produced especially for the clamoring Jason Polan fans among you. (Of which there are many!)
Today's edition, 132 Birds at the American Museum of Natural History — The Print, is making a little 20x200 history of its own. We're mixing it up a bit, offering some new dimensions and edition sizes, both because of the nature of the original it's based on and in order to meet our often outpaced demand. (Keep in mind that these are additions, not instead-ofs! We've got lots of great regular editions in the queue.) Today's prints, produced on 100% cotton rag matte paper using archival ink, are available in the following sizes:
14"x11" — edition of 500 — $50 each
24"x20" — edition of 50 — $500 each
40"x30" — edition of 2 — $2000 each
The oohs and ahhs elicited by Jason's previously released edition, comprised of booklets and individual birds, were often accompanied by the same refrain: "We'd love to have a print of all the birds!"
A capital idea, says I, especially since the charms of the utterly captivating original drawing are well known to me. While I'm so glad that it's ended up in a favorite collector's hands, I have found myself jonesing for a flock of my very own. These generously sized prints give the birds room to spread their wings, and any of the three available sizes will make quite a statement once framed and up on your wall.
It won't surprise you to hear that the industrious Mr. Polan has more than birds on the brain. In fact, he's been quite busy preparing for his upcoming solo show on the tony East End of Long Island. Point of Interest opens on Saturday, November 15th at Glenn Horowitz Bookseller. I canceled a trip to France in order to attend his opening, which makes me his #1 fan.
And now I'm off to attend to other things closer at hand, like the spicy sandwich growing cold at my left elbow, the never-ending email queue, plus planning and preparations for the quick trip I am taking — Thursday morning I'll be SF-bound for some important tacos meetings.
Till tomorrow, when I'll be back with a double dose of photography editions from another 20x200 fave.
