Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

10 1/2 x 8 in., 248 pp., smyth-sewn in wrappers with compact disc. "Jackson Mac Low's art returns us to something like the stance of an earlier avant-garde (Russian Futurism, Dada, etc.) for which artistic, spiritual & political renewals were all part of a single impulse. In no contemporary does it show through as clearly, movingly, this vision of experimental/language-centered art as social action.Mac Low, who [was] one of our true inventors, create[d] new modes & [brought] us back to the oldest possibilities of sound & language as they enter poetry & music & performance.The more one treats the book not only as a text but as a source & manual-the more one realizes the service of this work, its lasting power. It is in this sense that the book becomes, in Ezra Pound's words, 'a ball of light in one's hands.'" -Jerome Rothenberg Termed "America's most indefatigable experimental poet" by Publishers Weekly, Jackson Mac Low (1922-2004) is recognized internationally as a master innovator for nearly five decades.

Doings performs the dual task of sourcebook and Baedeker, a looking glass through which to see both where we've been and where we're going as we sift through the radical poetries of the postmodern era looking for renewal, for the inevitable path to the future. Doings includes an introduction by publisher Steve Clay, five gate-fold pull-outs, and a 60-minute CD of live and studio performance recordings from 1960 onward. Cover design by Ian Tyson. This is from an edition of 1000 copies, of which 38 are hand-bound in printed cloth-covered boards and are accompanied by an original numbered, signed silkscreen print by Tyson. The edition in wrappers, as new.…
