Poetry and Art Intersections: Exhibitions, Publications, and Dialogues
A performance artist and dancer delves into themes of mortality and geological time with a fresh version of her acclaimed piece. In Portland, OR, a gallerist and collagist showcases "Totems & Cantos." A retrospective at MoMA is part of four concurrent exhibitions dedicated to a late artist. Felix Bernstein shares his connection to the work and spirit of Jack Smith with curator Jay Sanders. Corbett reflects on his personal and artistic fascination with Franz Kline's creations. Cuneiform Press has recently released an anthology of essays focused on collaborations between poets and artists. Two poets engage in a conversation about publishing, the arts, and the financial aspects of success. A new translation combines two poems with a series of appropriated images in a single volume, as the artist elaborates on her evolving approach to her craft.
