Now & Then

Part of Lost & Found's mission has been to connect younger scholars and researchers to the work and person of elders whose artistic world they inherit. Lost & Found Now & Then adds a new facet to the prism we are constructing, a place for tribute and immediate response, as and when necessary.

Mouth to Word
