the transformations of mr. hadliz, 2002

 Item
Identifier: CC-58350-10001566
Scope and Contents

Amazon.com: combination of poetry, prose, and graphic art from a Czech Surrealist who once painted the surface of a frozen lake. The twelve full-color pictures that form the book's central motif are from a 1976 Danish calendar and executed by froissage, a particular method invented by Novak of interpreting the lines formed by crumpling TC. The text to the art was written overnight in the spirit of automatism, and, again sixteen years later. The volume also includes poems from Novak's alter ego, Mr. Hadliz, as well as a conversation between the author and his subject. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
