“The Suns of Man: Paintings, Poems and Photographics” is a captivating collection by Miriam Sowers, an American artist and poet who explored the intersection of visual and literary arts. Published in 1981, this volume showcases Sowers’ unique talent for blending vibrant paintings, evocative poetry, and thought-provoking photographic works.

Sowers’ artistic vision was deeply influenced by her experiences as a woman and her observations of the natural world. Her paintings often featured bold colors and abstract forms, while her poems delved into themes of identity, nature, and the human condition. The inclusion of “photographics” – a term she coined to describe her experimental photographic techniques – adds an intriguing layer to this multidisciplinary work.

This copy, though well-loved and bearing the gentle marks of time, offers collectors and readers a chance to immerse themselves in Sowers’ unique creative universe. As a relatively obscure yet influential figure in the American art scene of the late 20th century, her work remains a fascinating exploration of the boundaries between artistic mediums and a testament to the power of interdisciplinary expression.
