Myth & Medium: The Art of Dave Alber Lavishly illustrated art book focusing on mythological themes. The 72-page, 8 1/2 x 11 book displays over fifty pieces of art in a variety of medium. Myth & Medium also contains information about the art and artist, plus three related essays: The Myth of Prometheus; Frame, Crucible, Cosmos, Seeing Through the Boundaries of Epic; and The Discriminating Yoga of the Tiger's Psyche, Captain Sir. Richard Francis Burton's Tantric Adventure.

“Dave Alber’s book Myth and Medium is a courageous work that combines prose poetry and painting, two of the timeless forms that tap the numinous roots of art. I hope his work inspires artists everywhere to stretch their own mythic imagination."

Phil Cousineau, author of The Hero's Journey: Joseph Campbell on His Life and Work and Once and Future Myths: The Power of Ancient Myths in Modern Times

“Dave Alber’s Myth and Medium blends art with myth. His images and essays challenge the viewer to commune with the eternal values of our shared mythological heritage.”

Ginette Paris, Ph.D., author of Pagan Grace (Spring Publications, 1985) and of Pagan Meditations (1989).

“Alber’s work is grounded in the notion of myth-making itself. The personal and the interpersonal mix and mesh, to become something new, something that breaks the static desires of culture itself.”

Maggie Macary, Ph.D. creator of Myth & Culture

To the Dawn An epic poem by Dave Alber. The 48-page book also contains a preview of the forthcoming novel Alien Sex in Silicon Valley.

“Alber has written a modern apocalypse set to a shimmering score. A strongly argued religious lyric that boldly takes on world-history, interpreting the past and predicting the future.”

John Lardas, Ph.D., author of The Bop Apocalypse: The Religious Visions of Kerouac, Ginsberg, and Burroughs

“An epic poem of cosmology, the history of the earth, man, and civilization. It is ambitious, intelligent, poetic, and beautiful, on par with such epics as Octavio Paz’s Sunstone and T.S. Eliot’s The Wasteland. A bright light on the poetry horizon.”

Ralph Haselmann Jr. at Lucid Moon Poetry Magazine

“Dave Alber’s To the Dawn is a tour de force in dramatic, robust poetry. The background music and the power of narrative pour forth, in part imagistic, part stream of consciousness, gathering to create a single effect—a way into timeless conflicts in the human drama; an original blend of history, philosophy, myth and poetry.”
