Synopsis

'The artist is a collector of things imaginary or real. He accumulates things with the same enthusiasm that a little boy stuffs his pockets. The scrap heap and the museum are embraced with equal curiosity. He takes snapshots, makes notes and records impressions on tablecloths or newspapers, on backs of envelopes or matchbooks. Why one thing and not another is part of the mystery, but he is omnivorous.' Paul Rand

Sought after for his highly refined aesthetic, personal style and retail expertise, JP also curates exhibits and designs interiors for select clients.

JP is a connoisseur and avid collector of vintage ephemera and tools, and an established authority on typography and design. He writes about his collections and obsessions on Amassblog.com. Educated at Indiana University, the Rhode Island School of Design and Yale University, JP has taught graphic design at Parsons School of Design; The University of the Arts, Philadelphia; and Brigham Young University. He has lectured on design and corporate identity at various institutions including Beckmans Stockholm, Nuremberg Art Academy and ECAL in Lausanne, France. His writing has been published in Communication Arts and Looking Closer: Critical Writings on Graphic Design. His own imprint, Wms&Co, has published several books, including Likes, featuring the photography of Andy Spade, with a foreword by Glenn O’Brien, and Incomplete Inventory, a photo essay on the possessions of fashion icon Nick Wooster.
