Lunchbox: April 2011
http://artlunchbox.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Art, literature, and ideas that sustain. Sunday, April 24, 2011. A 3-dimensional cube nearly a meter squared stands alone in the darkened gallery. Smudge marks appear on the blackened surface of the cube, indicating the presence. Of two people, a man and woman, naked and slowly moving around inside. As their bodies rub against. The soot covered interior walls of the cube, the dark powder transfers to their skin, so that while the cube. Obscure themselves, and the walls of the cube continue to ebb between...

Lunchbox: December 2010
http://artlunchbox.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
Art, literature, and ideas that sustain. Sunday, December 19, 2010. I recently listened to an interview with Jonathan Safron Foer. Candid, entertaining, verging on brilliant- in which he said that he would not have become a writer if it were not for the inspiration of the visual artist Joseph Cornell. I can think of a few other creatives who seem to be benefitting from Cornell's influence, i.e. Damien Hirst and Wes Anderson. Monday, December 13, 2010. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Art, literature, and ideas that sustain. Sunday, May 19, 2013. East coast perfection: Secret spot, Cape Cod, MA. 1/2 mile walk through scrub pine and rose hips to a deserted beach. Wishing I had my board. The sandbars that form these glassy little slides are notoriously ephemeral. I think of the the Japanese Zen poets who developed a philosophical-aesthetic mode from the experience of fleeting perfect natural beauty. They called it Yugen. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Lunchbox: singing to myself
http://artlunchbox.blogspot.com/2011/07/singing-to-myself.html
Art, literature, and ideas that sustain. Wednesday, July 6, 2011. In my attic room studying spanish like crazy. Its 93 degrees out, hotter in. In this heat the work of breaking language out of its music into infinitives and subjunctive clauses, into los estructuras de la lengua. Is physical. Still, at times a single word soothes with onomatopoeia. Rascacielos. I can't speak the word without a tenor of passionate menace. Rasca- cielos. Is 1842 by Sam Amidon. I gleaned these quotes from his tumbler.

Art, literature, and ideas that sustain. Wednesday, May 18, 2011. Your Prose is Quite Good: Best Rejection Letter Ever. Two months ago I submitted a piece of fiction to the New Yorker, one of the most powerful arbiters of taste when it comes to contemporary fiction. Today I got the following rejection letter, the only such letter that has ever given me a confidence boost. During the flight to Baghdad Jamie copies the poem onto the band inside his helmet. I lived my days apart,. Dreaming fair songs for God.
