Roll Your Own press announces the publication of Part I of The Life and Times of Richard Musto, a modern day epic, written by Joe Lamport and photographed by Michel Delsol. The book chronicles the true-life story of Musto, an 88-year-old man and outsider artist who lives on the streets of Manhattan.
 
“This story is about a man’s survival on the City’s streets at an age when most of us would already be consigned to living in an assisted living facility,” as Joe Lamport explains. “Richard Musto is an artist - a survival artist - of the first rank.”
 
In conjunction with the publication, the authors are mounting an exhibit of photographs documenting Richard’s life on New York's sidewalks. Images from the book will be displayed alongside examples of Richard’s own writings and drawings. The exhibit will also feature an installation of one of Musto’s cardboard dwellings.
 
“We’re very grateful to Chashama for providing this gallery space where we can show Richard’s work and where visitors will be able to directly experience his life on the streets,” says Lamport. “We want to bring this outsider artist inside where his life and work can be more fully appreciated.”
 
“Richard’s creative energy has been crucial to his survival,” according to Michel Delsol. “We hope to continue that trend by dedicating a third of the proceeds we receive from the sale of books and prints to provide for Richard’s continued well-being.“
