500 $a"I've called my book 'A notebook of longing and regret' - drawings of faces of people I know and some phrases of the kind we say when someone has died. Although I know nothing about the people who died or were injured in the bombing I wanted to make something with a degree of intimacy because loss is a deeply personal experience. I was unsure about this idea as it seemed so basic but I lost a close friend in October 2011, and this has convinced me to submit them, anyway. They are simply small sketchbooks with rough drawings and rough writing. The images are taken from friends' Facebook pages; they are all images of people going about their daily business or having fun, much as I imagine people were doing on the street, when the bomber arrived"--The Book Arts at the Centre for Fine Print Research, UK website.
500 $aOn March 5th, 2007, a car bomb exploded on al-Mutanabbi Street in Baghdad. Al-Mutanabbi Street is located in a mixed Shia-Sunni area. More than 30 people were killed and more than 100 wounded. Al-Mutanabbi Street, the historic center of Baghdad bookselling, holds bookstores and outdoor bookstalls, cafes, stationery shops, and even tea and tobacco shops. It has been the longstanding heart and soul of the Baghdad literary and intellectual community for centuries. In response to the attack, a San Francisco poet and bookseller, Beau Beausoleil, rallied a community of international artists and writers to produce a collection of letterpress-printed broadsides (poster-like works on paper), artists' books (unique works of art in book form), and an anthology of writing, all focused on expressing solidarity with Iraqi booksellers, writers and readers. The coalition of contributing artists calls itself Al-Mutanabbi Street Starts Here Coalition.
520 $aThis collection supports and promotes awareness to the important mission and framework of the Al-Mutanabbi Street Starts Here Coalition's focus on the lasting power of the written word and the arts in support of the free expression of ideas, the preservation of shared cultural spaces, and the importance of responding to attacks, both overt and subtle, on artists, writers, and academics working under oppressive regimes or in zones of conflict, despite the destruction of that literary/cultural content.
520 $a"Steve initially trained as an illustrator of natural history, and then later took a first degree in Animation, and a Masters in Media. He has worked as a lecturer and technician in universities and colleges in North East England"--Artist's statement from Personal Histories blog (viewed June 22, 2015).
