Visual poetry

Furnival reproduced lessons from 51 language grammers as drawings in that language and arranged them in vertical fashions. He also included such signs as cattle brands and petroglyphs reflecting the far West influence on him during a year's sabbatical in New Mexico where this screen was executed. He recounted to the Sackners on the number of hours spent on this work - 1250 hours! This screen is depicted in Furnival's "Lost For Words" (2011) pages 50-51. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.

This exhibition was curated by Giovanni Fontana. It also included sound poetry recordings curated by John Giorno, Paul Vangelista, Charles Amirkhanian, and J.Wellman. The front cover was done by Karl Kempton. Although the title of this exhibition indicates that it featured the work of 55 American poets, several are of different nationalities, e.g., Canadian, French, British and German. The catalogue is identical to the catalogue for the Frosinone exhibition with the same title except for a 14 page insert printed on Kraft paper. The latter consists of brief essays by Minarelli, Giorno, Higgins, Wendt, Kostelanetz as well as statements by Helmes, Kempton, Essary, Kucharz, and Prost. The topics included text sound pieces by Americans, the Dial-A-Poem poets, intermedia, computer manipulations, holography, and personal statements about the artist's own work. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
