Publisher's Description

Even if one cannot afford to collect artworks, one can collect poems written about artworks. The Word and Art is the fruit of Stephen Falconer's years-long pilgrimage through galleries and museums, searching the world to select artworks upon which to reflect poetically.

“All creative works are born from variation. In The Word and Art, Falconer’s words build upon a foundation spanning eight centuries. Echoes of the familiar are transformed into something else entirely. The result is inspired and visceral; pithy deliveries crackle with life and show the fruits of art in conversation with itself.”

Michael Fialkowski
