It all began with an idea Frank Warren had for a com-munity
art project. He began handing out postcardsto strangers and
leaving them in public places--ask-ing people to write down a
secret they had nevertold anyone and mail it to him, anonymously.
The response was overwhelming. The secretswere both
provocative and profound, and the cardsthemselves were works of
art--carefully and cre-atively constructed by hand. Addictively
com-pelling, the cards reveal our deepest fears, desires,regrets,
and obsessions. Frank calls them "graphichaiku," beautiful,
elegant, and small in structure butpowerfully emotional.
As Frank began posting the cards on his web-site, PostSecret
took on a life of its own, becomingmuch more than a simple art
project. It has growninto a global phenomenon, exposing our
individualaspirations, fantasies, and frailties--our
commonhumanity.
Every day dozens of postcards still make theirway to Frank,
with postmarks from around theworld, touching on every aspect of
human experience. This extraordinary collection brings togetherthe
most powerful, personal, and beautifully inti-mate secrets Frank
Warren has received--and bril-liantly illuminates that human
emotions can beunique and universal at the same time.
