Dan’s Voyage consists of four unique artist’s books contained in a box reminiscent of a steamer trunk. The “blind collaboration” with James W. Pitts that resulted in the books was initiated by Price in 2001 and continued for over a year. All four artist’s books completed during the collaboration were purchased by a collector who a few years later continued the spirit of the collaboration by commissioning Daniel E. Kelm to create a container for the work. The four unique books included are: orient, Dream Places, The Mechanics of Wishing, and Dinner Party.
