Flowers Gallery is delighted to be working with Risso/Maresca Gallery and the US Postal Service to host a Dedication ceremony and opening reception of Martin Ramirez: Forever. This event will mark the release of a set of five Martin Ramirez forever stamps and will be held in conjunction with a solo exhibition of Ramirez's artwork at 529 West 20th Street, New York.

Although confined to psychiatric hospitals for more than 30 years, artist Martin Ramirez (1895-1963) produced more than 450 dynamic drawings and collages imbued with hypnotic power. Through the use of repeating lines and idiosyncratic motifs, Ramirez transcended his own situation to create a remarkably visualized world free from the constraints of borders and, even, of time itself.

You can follow the stamp ceremony live on the @USPSstamps Twitter account on Thursday 26 March.
