Comment: Retrospective of Ferlinghetti drawings shown in conjunction with the book release Life Studies, Life Drawings by the artist (City Lights Publishers, San Francisco, 2004). Mostly figurative, mostly nudes, some disturbing, some blunt, some love, some known, some alone, some together, some with words, rendered both in color and black and white. Pretty raw stuff for the most part. Prices in the $2000-$3000 range with 10K on a big electric chair collage in the back room. Writer art in the tradition of Henry Miller and E. E. Cummings, but not Dr. Seuss. Beret count: 4

Artist/Artists: Lawrence Ferlinghetti.
