Richard Oviet Tyler, American 1926-1983, served in WWII, and studied at The Art Institute of Chicago. He established the Uranian Press in NYC on the Lower East Side. There he created and printed art books, pamphlets and broadsides, which he sold from a pushcart near Judson Church in the West Village. In 1974 he and his wife Dorothea Baer established the Uranian Phalanstery, a commune based on the ideas of the French philosopher Charles Fourier. The Philanstery served as a space in which artists could live, work, and create closely together. The Tylers were associated with Claes Oldenberg, Allen Ginsberg, Timothy Leary, Monroe Wheeler, and other in the course of their activities with the Philanstery.
