VIVE LA RÉSISTANCE! LA POÉSIE DE LA RÉSISTANCE!
Lily Ladewig & Leigh Stein are two founding members of a group I have just now created, The Poetry Resistance. According to Wikipedia, The Poetry Resistance is a defiant front, united against boring bullshit & bad poems. Lily Ladewig & Leigh Stein write poems both gorgeously disobedient & hilariously dangerous, in addition to providing first-hand intelligence information and maintaining escape networks that help those who have become trapped by obligation at never-ending readings.
& so, mon peu d'orge sucres, join the movement on Thursday, September 16, at 7 PM, when Lily “Le Lapin Audacieux Jacques” Ladewig & Leigh “La Licorne Courageux” Stein lead a thrilling revolt against apathy & goodfornothings, terrible verse & snoozy old literary regimes.

Discussion #1
Not Nature Poems: Current Trends in Ecopoetics
Introducing QUIPS & CRANKS: A Series of Panel Discussions on Poetics in the Arts, curated by Vincent Katz & Tim Peterson, at the School of Visual Arts. We aim to create an engaging, We aim to create an engaging, unpredictable, and free-flowing space of discussion about pressing issues in the arts that can't or won't happen anywhere else. Based on such precedents as The Club and the Cedar Tavern, QUIPS & CRANKS is set to shake things up.
Our first discussion this season, is "Not Nature Poems: Current Trends in Ecopoetics" and features:
painter Rackstraw Downes
poet Brenda Iijima
critic/scholar Joan Richardson
poet Jonathan Skinner

Admission: Free and open to the public.
Ecopoetics : how are artists reconceiving their work in respect to nature? Poets Brenda Ijima and Jonathan Skinner join painter Rackstraw Downes and critic/scholar Joan Richardson to discuss recent developments in their work regarding how to make art in relation to devastating human-engendered changes in the natural environment. As more artists respond to the condition of climate change, ecopoetics asks how we can begin to have a new understanding of our volatile world. How can and should we reimagine the way we conceive our relationship to nature? Is language "just talk" in the face of the current environmental crisis? Have our traditional ways of articulating ecological awareness - through either elegy or Chicken Little pronouncements that the sky is falling - become outdated ideas that rely upon problematic assumptions? What can our active roles be, given the increasingly unstable world in which we live and participate?
Two of the jumping-off points for our discussion will be recent publications by panel participants, including Jonathan Skinner's ongoing journal, titled ecopoetics and Brenda Iijima's eco language reader, published by Portable Press at Yo-Yo Labs in collaboration with Nightboat Books.
Presented by the MFA Art Criticism and Writing Department at SVA.

Painter Rackstraw Downeswas awarded a MacArthur Fellowship in 2009. His work is in the collections of The Whitney Museum of American Art, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, The Museum of Modern Art, Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, The Hirschhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, Washington DC, and the Museum of Modern Art, Fort Worth, among others. Downes has published two books of his own writings: In Relation to the Whole: Three Essays from Three Decades, 1973, 1981, and l996. (New York: Edgewise Press, 2000) and Under the Gowanus and Razor-Wire Journal: The Making of Two Paintings, 5.9.99 - 11.15.99, (New York: Turning the Head Press, 2000). In 2005, a monograph on Rackstraw Downes was published by Princeton University Press with essays by Robert Storr, Sanford Schwartz and Downes. Downes is also the editor of Art In Its Own Terms, the collected writings of painter and critic Fairfield Porter. His MacArthur citation reads in part, "Rackstraw Downes is a painter whose minutely detailed, oil-on-canvas landscapes invite viewers to reconsider the intersection between the natural world and man-made objects. Rejecting picturesque views...his landscapes depict scenes generally overlooked or dismissed for lack of a traditional aesthetic appeal. His subjects range from the roadways, urban detritus, and industrial backyards of the East Coast to the oil fields and vast, empty terrain of Texas. In painting the American landscape as it is, not as it has been idealized, Downes imbues seemingly ordinary subjects with extraordinary power."
Brenda Iijima was born in the hilly town of North Adams, Massachusetts. She is the author of Around Sea(O Books), Animate, Inanimate Aims (Litmus Press), revv.you'll-ution (Displaced Press) and If Not Metamorphic (Ahsahta Press) as well as numerous chapbooks and artist's books. She is also the editor of the eco language reader (Nightboat Books and PP@YYL). Currently she is working on a body of work titled Some Simple Things Said by and About Humans- a chronicle of how humans have used animals as surrogates. She is also choreographing site-specific dances surrounding issues of environmental toxicity and human engagement in her hometown together with videographer Tammy Fortin. She is the editor of Portable Press at Yo-Yo Labs (http://yoyolabs.com/).
Joan Richardson is Professor of English, Comparative Literature, and American Studies at The Graduate Center. Author of a two-volume biography of the poet Wallace Stevens, she coedited, with Frank Kermode, Wallace Stevens: Collected Poetry and Prose (Library of America, 1997). Her essays on Stevens, on Ralph Waldo Emerson, on Jonathan Edwards have been published in the Wallace Stevens Journal, in Raritan, and elsewhere, and essays on Alfred North Whitehead, William James, and pragmatism have appeared in the journals Configurations and The Hopkins Review. Review essays have appeared in Bookforum and other journals. Her study A Natural History of Pragmatism: The Fact of Feeling from Jonathan Edwards to Gertrude Stein was published by Cambridge University Press in 2007, and has been nominated for the 2011 Grawemeyer Award in Religion. She is currently at work on another volume for Cambridge, Pragmatism and American Culture as well as a book-length study, The Return of the Repressed: Stanley Cavell and Ralph Waldo Emerson. Joan Richardson has been the recipient of several awards and fellowships including a Woodrow Wilson Fellowship and a Senior Fellowship from the National Endowment for the Humanities. Her work reflects an abiding interest in the way that philosophy, natural history, and science intersect with literature.
Jonathan Skinner's poetry collections include With Naked Foot (Little Scratch Pad, 2008) and Political Cactus Poems (Palm Press, 2005). Skinner founded and edits the journal ecopoetics, which features creative-critical intersections between writing and ecology. His most recent essay, "Thoughts on Things: Poetics of the Third Landscape," appears in the eco language reader (Portable Press at Yo-yo Labs and Nightboat Books, 2010). Skinner teaches in the Environmental Studies Program at Bates College in Central Maine, where he makes his home.

Music, Readings, Oh My Oh My My Eye
I'm flattered to say that my review of Yo La Tengo's latest album was chosen by GSL as one of the best for 2009. Keep the amps plugged in & turned up loud. A link to the review can be found on the right side of this blog.
I'm thrilled to say that I looked over proofs for my forthcoming chap, (Ir)Rational Animals today & what's more thrilling is that the email subject was Crazy Ass Animals.
I'll be away from Thursday until late Sunday with limited (if any) internet so this will be my last post until sometime next week.
Naturally in my absence from NYC there's a ton of awesomeness oozing from the city's pores.
How about Sommer Browning & a guitar?
The first is the mind-bendingly sustaining manna that is The Guitarmy (formerly Sportsman's Paradise).
Five guitars. One drumming maniac. Zero concern for personal well-being.

yardmeter editions presents: poets Brenda Iijima & Daniel Lin,
multimedia artist Craig Foltz & jeweler/sculptor Kristin D'Agostino.
yardmeter editions is an events series that brings together artists,
writers, playwrights & other creative types in an informal setting in
the Gowanus neighborhood of Brooklyn, NY.

Brenda Iijima's forthcoming works include revv. you'll--ution
(Displaced Press) & If Not Metamorphic (Ahsahta Press). She writes
about animal-ability. Present work deals with animals used as
surrogates by humans (other animals). She runs Portable Press at Yo-Yo
Labs & lives in Prospect Heights, Brooklyn.
Kristin D'Agostino is the side-project-queen of
participatory/dialogic/littoral/interventionist jewelery in New
Zealand. As she sees it jewelery is about relationships, so why stop
at the object? Why not make a relationship for her objects to live
within? She is actively recruiting North American participants for her
first bi-hemisphere, co-owned, brooch project called Rare Fungal
Behaviour & would very much like to see brooches popping up, like
ghosts, around the five Burroughs. You can find more information here
www.rarefungalbehaviour.blogspot.com.
Craig Foltz is a writer and multi-media artist who lives on the slopes
of a dormant volcano in Auckland, New Zealand. This one is not a test.
If I understand the meaning of the word correctly. He is the author of
The States, from Ugly Duckling Presse, & you can see his work at
www.craigfoltz.com.
Daniel Lin has a chapbook, Tinder, from Nightboat Books, & has
recently published poems in Unsplendid, Notre Dame Review & The Jewish
Quarterly. He was a N.Y. Times Fellow at NYU & a Tennessee Williams
Scholar at Sewanee Writers’ Conference. He co-edits Love among the
Ruins, which will publish limited-edition chapbooks & an online
journal.
