Description

Artist, educator, writer, and longtime Grolier Club member Ed Colker (b. 1927) started the not-for-profit Haybarn Press in 1960 as a collaborative venture with contemporary poets. In each volume, Colker creates prints in his organic gestural style in response to the work of the author. This hand-colored offset lithograph captures the tension between absence and presence, interior and exterior, that is evoked in Kathleen Norris’s poem “The Room.”
