(2) K-3 Photographs by Ken Hannon. Photographs edited by Rich Entel. Bryan presents photos and poems for a selection of the puppets he has made from found materials (driftwood, cloth, bones) for nearly sixty years. Each poem is told in the first person and titled with the puppet's name (drawn from various African cultures). Bryan's strong storytelling voice sometimes gives way to tacked-on lessons, but the puppets' artistry is enough to forgive small flaws.
