A long poem memorializing the art and lives of sculptors Frances Loring and Florence Wyle.Arleen Par#65533;, in her first book-length poem after her Governor General Literary Award-winning Lake of Two Mountains, turns her cool, benevolent eye to the shared lives of Florence Wyle and Frances Loring, two of Canada's greatest artists, whose sculptures she comes face to face with at the National Gallery of Canada. In the guise of a curator, Par#65533; takes us on a moving, carefully structured tour through the rooms where their work is displayed, the Gallery's walls falling away to travel in time to Chicago (where they met at art school and fell in love in the 1910s), New York, and Toronto (where they lived and worked for the next six decades). Along the way, Par#65533; looks at fashions in art, the politics of gender, and the love that longtime proximity calls forth in us. The Girls with Stone Faces is one of the finest collections of poetry about the lives of artists--and most importantly their work--to appear in Canada in many years. Although Wyle and Loring were well known during their lifetimes, they have dropped out of common memory. Par#65533;'s collection is art loving art, woman loving women, words loving shape, poetry loving stone, the curve of jaw, the trajectory of days. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
