Description
Close to one hundred figurative drawings in black and white, and in colour, mostly nudes in love or strife, some 'disastered by life', some with incisive or caustic words integrated in the images. This is a retrospective of Ferlinghetti's graphic work and play, ranging from his early drawings done in Paris, to yesterday's sessions in his San Francisco studio.
