This anthology mourns 27 public figures who died in 2020 with essays
and poetry by 40 writers paired with relief print portraits. Some may
have been celebrities for decades, while others found international
attention through their deaths, but all shaped our perception of our
world. The public figures mourned range from Eddie Van Halen to Ellis
Marsalis Jr., George Floyd to Jim Lehrer, Ruth Bader Ginsburg to Kobe
Bryant. Contributing writers include poets laureate, a screenwriter,
playwright, artist, educators, activists, journalists, a chef and
storytellers.
Mourning celebrities may be a way to mourn
something larger. We don’t know these people, after all, but they often
have significance in our lives. By reflecting on people through words
and images, this project asks who and what do we want to say goodbye to,
and who and what do we want to remember. Together, these images and
words help us understand our relationships to each other and to
ourselves during this tumultuous year.
