À propos du livre
In Memoriam: 1918/2020 is an artwork, book, and memorial to the victims of the 1918 flu pandemic in Denver, exploring a universal experience through a regionalist perspective. With a visual style that reflects the Modernist art of the early 20th century, as well as the legacy of book arts from the medieval era, this project illustrates contemporary parallels to past human experiences by layering elements of visual art, literature, and nature. As an artist living through the 2020 coronavirus pandemic, the accompanying book for In Memoriam: 1918/2020 investigates art historical connections to artists who lived through or died in previous outbreaks of disease like black plague and influenza. Pandemics like those in 1918 and 2020 often result from, as well as stir up, social change.
