{"product_id":"0824046164928","title":"Sitting On Top Of The World: 1950-55","description":"\"This 'history' came about because my friends, Sarah Dudley and Ulie Kuhle, litho printers in Berlin, were given about 100 litho stones from a former Socialist art academy in what was the D.D.R. The stones all had images on them drawn by forty years of students under the oppressive regime. I asked them to reactivate the stones and print them on Zerkall Paper 450 g\/m . Most images I chose of the 100 were able to have life breathed into them. We had finally forty-five images. They editioned the lithographs and then sent them to us in Walla Walla, Washington. I drew and ground and bit copper plates to go over them. I wanted a black view of the image and a sense of Berlin in the East as I knew it when the horrible wall was still up. The etchers who came to work with me every summer over two and a half years have coaxed the exact mood I wanted out of the plates.\" -Jim Dine","brand":"Music Video Dist.***","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50095536111856,"sku":"0824046164928","price":26.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/0824046164928","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
