Abstract (en)

Focuses on an awareness manifest in contemporary poetry (1970s-1980s) of the total otherness of the painter's art, and of the consequent need for poetic strategies of a particular nature to render adequately and persuasively in words the experience of the permeating silence and stillness of the painting.
