Description

The listing, Post Secret has ended.

This was the project that captured a nation's imagination. The instructions were simple, and the results were unbelievable. "You are invited to anonymously contribute a secret to a group art project. Your secret can be a regret, fear, betrayal, desire, confession, or childhood humiliation. Reveal anything -- as long as it is true and you have never shared it with anyone before. He said, be brief, legible, be creative. He began handing out postcards to strangers and leaving them in public places -- asking people to write down a secret they had never told anyone and mail it to him, anonymously. The response was overwhelming. The secrets were both provocative and profound, and the cards themselves were works of art -- carefully and creatively constructed by hand. The cards reveal our deepest fears, desires, regrets, and obsessions. As Frank began posting the cards on his website, Post Secret took on a life of its own, becoming much more than a simple art project. It has grown into a global phenomenon, exposing our individual aspirations, fantasies, and frailties -- our common humanity. This extraordinary collection brings together the most powerful, personal, and beautifully intimate secrets Frank Warren has received -- and brilliantly illuminates that human emotions can be unique and universal at the same time.

Hardcover in great shape. Pre read

So it shows the cards as well...it's saying the cards are works of art so it has illustrations?

Added a picture so can see what the book is; it is postcards like those above throughout the entire book. Yes, it is art!
