The Definitive
Renaissance Man
Rex Amos is the definitive renaissance man — prolific and passionate about creating art, philosophy, poetry, journals, protests, and pranksterism. Rex recounts the highlights of his adventures in conversations with his closest collaborators and friends.
His circle includes Bud Clark — the 48th Mayor of Portland; philosopher Graham P. Conroy; artist and inventor Don Farnsworth of Magnolia Editions; and art historian Roger Hull. Together they delve into Rex’s art and his unusual collection of letters, hats, journals, and “leavings” — a life told through accumulated objects and ideas.
