Marsha P. Johnson with CA Conrad and Ken Angel Davis

Ken Angel Davis is inspired by poets as many artists are; it’s a two way street because poets are also inspired by artists. Continuing in that big time tradition, here is a hand colored print, a collaboration that Ken Angel Davis did for a CA Conrad poem that is an homage to Marsha P. Johnson, who was a pioneer, a founding member of the “Gay Liberation Front,” a co-founding member of “Street Transvestite Action Revolutionaries,” a NYC icon, treasure and legend, the stuff that dreams are made on.

This hand painted print is on display at the Museum of Modern Art:

Hail Marsha P. Johnson!

Hail CA Conrad!

Hail Ken Angel Davis!

Right on! Right on!

Enjoy.
