[ Paul Reps Archive ]

coming soon

The Reps Archive is a project dedicated to preserving and sharing the life and teachings of Zen artist, author, and poet Paul Reps (1895–1990).


Since 2017, the Reps Archive has documented and digitally preserved thousands of letters, writings, photographs, videos, audio recordings, and conversations with Reps, his friends, and students. 


As the archive continues to grow, friends of Reps are welcome to contact me to contribute any photographs, writings, and memories of Reps to the archive.
