In Memory of My Feelings
A Selection of Poems
Description:... "Frank O'Hara: In Memory of My Feelings explores a key period in modern art, and highlights 30 artists who collaborated with O'Hara to produce poem-paintings--a single work of art paired with a single poem. The artists included Nell Blaine, Norman Bluhm, Joe Brainard, John Button, Giorgio Cavallon, Allan D'Arcangelo, Elaine de Kooning, Willem de Kooning, Niki de Saint Phalle, Helen Frankenthaler, Jane Freilicher, Michael Goldberg, Philip Guston, Grace Hartigan, Al Held, Jasper Johns, Matsumi Kanemitsu, Alex Katz, Lee Krasner, Alfred Leslie, Roy Lichtenstein, Marisol, Joan Mitchell, Robert Motherwell, Robert Nakian, Barnett Newman, Claes Oldenburg, Robert Rauschenberg, Larry Rivers and Jane Wilson. After being published by MoMA in 1967 as a collection of slipcased sheets, the original art-literature pairings of In Memory of My Feelings were thought to be lost. Last year, the works were rediscovered in the museum's archives, and this bound version was planned to re-present a seminal document of the beauty of collaboration in the arts."--Amazon.com.
