Bob Harper : Lennon - ‘John in Words’
“John In Words”
Words from the artist:
A set of 3, minus Ringo, for the good reason that these are comprised largely of words written by the minds behind the features. The faces are Beatles at the peak of Beatlemania, the classic clean-cut Epstein image. I used sepia to create a nostalgic quality, like flicking through family albums from generations back. A decade is a long time, and these words contribute largely to the very fabric of my formative years. Every time I hear a Beatles’ song it takes me right to the moment in a memory. It’s a tool no generation prior to the recording industry has had at it’s disposal. For instance, when I hear “She Said, She Said” I recall Michelle on the banks of the Seine, a Parisienne I met in the summer of ‘66… “Revolver” had just been released, and I was lucky enough to be in Paris where Klaus Voorman’s fantastic drawing was decorating every billboard in the French capital. She was beautiful and tolerant of my naive approaches, but at least we shared the Beatles.
