Description
Visual Poetry of Japan: 1684-2023 collects a multitude of Japanese poetic, aesthetic and visual expressive forms into an overview of works spanning more than 300 years. From visual translations of Bash¿, to Taish¿-era textual manipulation of characters, to Yamamoto Kansuke's lexical verse and surreal photography, to John Solt's postcard art, this curated set of haiku, calligrams, collages, concrete poems, and other works, offers extraordinary visions to the eye, mind and heart.
Editor Taylor Mignon's previous books include VOU: Visual Poetry Tokio, 1958-1978 (Isobar Press, 2021) and Bearded Cones & Pleasure Blades: The Collected Poems of Torii Sh¿z¿ (highmoonoon, 2013).
