Books Bob Dylan’s the Philosophy of Modern Song
The Philosophy of Modern Song Bob Dylan Simon & Schuster ISBN-13: 9781451648706 The philosopher Gilles Deleuze once described Bob Dylan in a suitably curious and contradictory way: “The opposite of a plagiarist, but also the opposite of a master or a model. A very lengthy preparation, yet no method, nor rules, nor recipes. Nuptials without couples or conjugality. Having a bag into which I put everything I encounter, provided that I am also put in a bag.
MARCH 2023
The Potential Worldings of the Kitbash By Andrew Paul Woolbright The artist and critic Jesse Murry described a breath that makes possible another breath. How can our movements allow for other movements? As artists, how can our practices extend space for others as much as it asks for space; and give language and poetry to others as much as it asks for those things.

When I lived in San Francisco (1977 – 79) the person I most wanted to meet (after Bob Kaufman) was Jordan Belson. But he had already become quite a famous recluse and all attempts were rebuffed. Belson’s remarkable underground films are often paired with Harry Smith’s: they were best friends and shared a painting studio on and off from 1948 until 1953; both were supported by Hilla Rebay, doyenne of non-objective painting and co-founder of the Guggenheim Museum.
IN MEMORIAM Rene Ricard (1946 2014)
Growing up in Lowell, Mass., I often took the train to Boston to visit Gordon Cairnie’s Grolier Poetry Bookshop in Harvard Square, hoping to encounter an authentic poet. Harvard and Inman Squares in Cambridge had a handful of cafes, storefront galleries, and publishing collectives.
