Framed gravure etching by Sandra Fisher, artist’s proof number 5 of 10.

To Share That Moment was originally published with Thomas Meyer’s Monotypes and Tracings, which also contains original monotype prints. This is an artist’s proof, created alongside the main edition.

The American poet Thomas Meyer’s ‘tracings’ of Goethe, Hölderlin, Heine, C.F. Meyer, Nietzsche, Stefan George, Rilke and Celan are accompanied here by an impressive sequence of figurative monotypes by the American artist Sandra Fisher (1947-1994).  In his poetic introduction John Ashbery writes ‘Meyer’s beautiful takes on German Romantic poetry take one far, to unexpected destinations that often turn out to be the essence of the poems … Sandra Fisher’s black-and-white monotypes are the perfect travelling companion’.

Printed on 300gsm Vélin Cuves BFK Rives at Hope Sufferance Press.
