Visual artist Tom Lee designed many of the flyers for Russell’s performances. “I truly loved and was proud of creating these cards for each of Arthur’s concerts. I felt it was a way to reach people we may not have otherwise reached”, writes Lee.
To mark the release, a donation has been made to two organisations important to Russell: Performance Space New York and Danspace Project.
The collection coincides with the release of Iowa Dream, a new LP compiling Russell’s unreleased recordings and lost songs, this November via Audika Records.
The collaboration features t-shirts and a sweatshirt.
