Everything in Motion, Everything at Rest: A Gallery of Photo-Poems (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

Poetry. Art. We know many of the photographs as threads woven into our lives and into our understandings of the world and of history. And in some ways we don't know the photographs at all. The photo poems are not captions; their evocative language--in one case, chanting; in another, the subject's monologue--creates a unique relationship with each photograph, bringing the images alive in new and startling ways. Although the collection is serious, it also celebrates photography. Perhaps paradoxically, the precise, varied, and imaginative language keeps everything in this gallery intensely alive. The photo poems in EVERYTHING IN MOTION, EVERYTHING AT REST enlarge as you read them. I am energized by these photo poems, and grateful to John Bradley, whose work goes beyond the usual to open the borders between these arts.--Veronica Patterson
