The Bird of Imagining

The Touchstone Center for Children
An interpretive video of the book by Richard Lewis, created by Geoffrey Jones. Music by Geoffrey Jones. Narrated by Richard Lewis. Based on a poem by Richard Lewis and illustrated by twenty-two luminous cray-pas drawings by children from New York City Public Schools, this unique book explores the nature of the imagination through the flight of a bird evolving into the flight of our human imagining. The children's art work in the book came from a series of arts and education residencies of The Touchstone Center at the Central Park East # 1 and #2, The River East School, and the Children's Workshop School in 1989 and 1996

CAVE: An evocation of the Beginnings of Art

The Touchstone Center
Touchstone Center Publications presents a video by Geoffrey Jones of the book by Richard Lewis, based on his theatre piece originally performed at the American Museum on Natural History, CAVE was brought into book form through a series of striking clay sculptural images created by Elizabeth Crawford, sensitively photographed by George Hirose. Each image reflects the simplicity of a text 'imagining' how and why humans over thirty-thousand years ago, with their profound relationship to the natural world, began to paint on the walls of dark caves, the astonishing images of the animals they hunted and revered.
