being and becoming ...
"being and becoming what?", pastel on paper, 1988.
aptly titled for a guy who hasn't posted anything on this blog for eight months ... and the answer to the question is a book in itself - a good book - because it has been one of the most artistically productive years of my life in terms of setting objectives and achieving them ...
no fanfare, grandstanding, or heaps of public adulation - quite the contrary - just slow, methodical, and long deliberate days of hard work with a pile of personal breakthroughs ...

CODA ...
CODA, 1991.
Three-colored lithograph on D’Arches paper.
Size: 41.5”H x 29.5”W.
Limited edition of 30 signed prints.
Paul Harryn Studios © 1991
a three-color, limited edition lithograph - printed on D’Arches paper at the Rutger’s Center
for Innovative Printmaking.
CODA will be part of a group exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City during 2010.
CODA is among the permanent collections of prints at the Philadelphia Art Museum, the Berman
Art Museum, and the Zimmerli Museum ...
CODA, by definition, is a system of signals - such as light, images, or sound, used to send messages.
This limited edition of thirty, hand -made prints was part of an extensive body of work by the artist
between 1988 and 1992 entitled: “Signals and Cells”.
artist's notes:
the artist as a conduit - the brain as palette -
neurology, dendrite, synapse - branches -
impenetrable landscapes - the organization of a
thought ...
dna structures, spirals, moon tigers, the spinal
column, nerve centers, ancient symbolism,
alchemy, fertility symbols, apparitions,
mysticism ...
the crescent moon occulting venus and mars,
sun dogs, astrological symbols, pi, unified
theories, mechanical rotations, clockwork,
native american ritual, sha’la’ko, desert
darkness, petroglyphs, shaman scepters,
paint brushes, and spiritual awakenings ...
the marvelous reality, the ineffable core, the
aleph, time ghosts, water memory ...
The images contained in CODA were the subject of hundreds of paintings and drawings that were exhibited in New York, Philadelphia, Atlanta, Los Angeles, and the Lehigh Valley; with one-person shows and catalogs from the Berman Museum and Lehigh University.
Artwork from this series has been distributed to private, corporate, and museum collections throughout the U.S. and Europe.
CODA was printed at Rutger’s Center for Innovative Printing in New Jersey under the supervision of Master Printer, Eileen Foti. The process involved manipulating, treating, and
aligning three massive litho stones with techniques developed by the artist to yield the highest quality printing of original art.
[seven of twelve remaining prints are being offered at $1,500 per print ... ]
