C. Mehrl Bennett and Marilyn R. Rosenberg are masterful collaborators, poets, and inventors of colorful images and themes. “Dancing ants reading” – one of the delightful phrases swarming in this vivid artist’s book, which has as its central theme the soles of our feet and all that such a topic implies about self, time, motion through life, and one’s place(s) in the universe. Extremely colorful and full of fascinating detail, it is a work which can be repeatedly enjoyed and reveals new secrets each time. Appealing as visual poetry, as graphic design, and as an artist’s book, this collaboration achieves the most fulfilling of any collaboration between 2 artists: it becomes as if it were the work of a third person, a new artist never before discovered. - John M. Bennett / February 2011

Rosenberg at her studio in NYC & a limited edition of 25 sets of four stampsheets and 25 books were signed by both collaborators (C. Mehrl Bennett and Marilyn R. Rosenberg). A very reasonable price of $24.00 (plus $2.75 shipping) is now offered for a limited time for five of these SIGNED and numbered sets.  After five signed sets are sold, the price will double for the remaining five signed sets held by LBP. [Two sets were reserved for two shoe box book projects that the two artists/visual poets are collaborating on/ half the batch of signed works are for sale by request through MRR.]
