Received today. Barbara Guest. Durer in the Window, Reflexions on Art. Roof, 2003.

Despite the somewhat intrusive, rather busy design by Richard Tuttle, a beautiful book. Guest is at her best when she is immersed in the art work, collaborating with it, not writing "about" it. Some early clippings from Art News. Some poems from different periods, giving a wonderful feeling of simultaneity between the 1950s and the present. Texts published elsewhere acquire a new context. An essay on Tuttle uses almost identical language as in a poem from Miniatures entitled "Noisetone." That poem can then be read as "about" Tuttle.

For Gary--some comics in collaboration with Joe Brainard.
