art as poetry/poetry as art
Exhibit: May 14—June 18, 2023
The Rahr-West Art Museum is proud to host Art as Poetry/Poetry as Art, an exhibit organized by the Lakeshore Artist Guild May 14 through June 18, 2023. This “call and response” exhibit features the collaboration of twenty artists and twenty poets. Artists provided images of existing work to evoke new poetry. Poets were invited to submit a poem to spark new artwork. Each artist and poet selected the poem or artwork that excited them and then the creative juices flowed. This months-long collaboration has resulted in forty pairings of poems and visual artworks.
Reception
Sunday, May 21, 2023 from 1:00—3:00 pm
Join us for a reception and poetry reading with the artists and poets.
