Poetry and Drawing: A Collaborative Project by Arthur Sze and Susan York
A collaborative exhibition featuring a single work of art composed of drawings and poetry by poet Arthur Sze and SFUAD’s President’s chair of the Art Department, sculptor Susan York.
Eleven diptychs comprised of 22 densely layered graphite works on paper by York are interleaved into an extended, multi-voiced poem by Sze. Together they explore, embody, and enact shifting points of
tension to arrive at a liminal space where all things are possible.
Radius Books will pre-release a hardcover version of this project in conjunction with this exhibition that will be for sale.
