The Stolen Relic
The Story by David Marcum
Christmas Eve 1881: Watson, still recovering from his wounds at the Battle of Maiwand the year before, is in a bleak mood. But then a visitor – an Orthodox priest – arrives at 221b Baker Street with a new case for Sherlock Holmes. It seems that one of the bones of St. Nicholas, believed to have mystical powers, has been stolen from the church in Turkey where they are kept and brought to London. Holmes agrees to locate the missing object. But there are complications, and before the day is over, Holmes and Watson may have witnessed a miracle or two . . . .
The Artist (Terre Rybovich)
Daughter of legendary boat builder Tommie Rybovich, Terre Rybovich "draws backwards" by using her body to remove charcoal from paper. This physical process bypasses mental control, resulting in figurative works of perpetual wonder. A former activist, her work has been part of NYC’s Drawing Center Viewing Program since 2004.
The Adventure of the Missing Link
The Story by David Marcum
This tale has to do with the excavations at Piltdown, which resulted in the now infamous “Piltdown Man.” The skull had been sent to Sir William Olster for examination. However; he only manages a cursory glance before the skull is expertly stolen from his house. The twists in this tale are truly amazing.
The Artist ( Bruce Helander)
Inducted into the Florida Artists Hall of Fame alongside Tom Petty, Bruce Helander is a world-renowned collage artist whose work is held by over 50 major institutions, including the Guggenheim, the Met, and the Smithsonian. For the global project The Art of Sherlock Holmes, Helander became the first artist featured twice. This standout piece, "The Adventure of The Missing Link," is a complex paper collage on museum board that translates David Marcum’s short story into a "Fine Art" visual narrative.
