A-Z: artist's own use.Progressives: 1 set to George Gund III, 2 sets to Saint Hieronymus Press, Inc.(Communication Arts 83 Design Annual).The quest for the Holy Grail can be undertaken with any hope of success only by the pure in mind, body and heart. Lancelot, the best knight in the world, was disqualified because of his carnal love for Guenevere. Perceval didn't love anybody or anything, except his own purity. His strength was as the strength of ten because his heart was pure, and whenever he found himself in danger of becoming impure he was saved by some simple act of faith. Fiends burst like sausages all around him as soon as he made the sign of the cross, which he always did just in the nick of time. He was, in fact, too pure for the mundane altogether, and after attaining the object of his quest, passed out of this world without even bothering to die.

Surrealists have attempted to read into his works early embodiments of their own principles, and Freudians have had a field day with the symbolism. As well they might. Though there are some things better left alone: the innocent pleasure that you take in twisting about with Alice in her looking-glass world might be marred by too close a look into the workings of the author's Victorian mind, and you should likewise avoid witnessing the manufacture of sausages or the making of civil and criminal law."Laws are like sausages: it is better not to see them being made."

They were all curable, as far as we knew, and there was even at some point a reasonable hope of eradicating them entirely. The heavy hitters-genital herpes, AIDS and all the other antibiotic-resistant Sexually Transmitted Gargoyles-hadn't been invented yet. You didn't even need to worry about unplanned pregnancy, at least not around here. One in five American women was on The Pill. Believe it or not, in thirty years or so people will look back on the 'nineties as the good old days. What appalling things will cast this dreary time in a rosy light? Carpe diem.** Carpe diem, quam minimum credula postero. Seize the day, put no trust in the morrow. - Horace, Odes (23 bc), ode xi, last line. 1972.

Karsten, Jr. A-Z: Artist's own use.(Communication Arts CA79; Color in Art and Design, Mary Pat Fisher and Paul Zelanski, John Calmann & King, LTD, London, 1988) (facsimile).Influence: Japanese design motifsMy high school Latin teacher, Ernie Karsten, provided support and encouragement that idealizes the student-teacher relationship. He befriended me through heartbreak and joy, and made sure that I had enough to eat in lean student days. He even paid my college tuition one semester. He offered praise at every turn, overlooking my shortcomings and never trampling on tender budding efforts.How do you repay such generosity? Fifteen years later, Ernie got stuck with the publicity for a conference of high school English teachers at Asilomar. At last I was given the opportunity to repay a fraction of what I owed. Asilomar liked the poster so well that they made tiles and rugs from the design. I even got to stay there free one night and admire my own handiwork.
