Book Launch and Readings with Bill Bissett and Carl Peters

Please join Talon Books and READ Books at Charles H. Scott Gallery for the launch of textual vishyuns: image and text in the work of bill bissett by Carl Peters and novel by bill bissett both published by Talon Books.

Carl Peter will read from textual vishyuns, which attests that bill bissett’s entire body of work consists of an integrated aesthetic praxis of “the whole art”; that his drawings, paintings, collages and assemblages challenge artistic conventions of visual language in the same way that his poetry challenges linguistic conventions of syntax and grammar to escape the strictures of Western modes of binary and hierarchical thought and perception.

bill bissett will also read from his latest book novel. Novel is th harrowing n sumtimez wundrus serch 4 a lost love as a remedee 2 th xistenshul stuk ness tragik seveer n stranglee mooving n hopeful surprisinglee tuff nd lyrikul with intrkonnekting pomes n essays model narrativs apeer in stunning swimweer on alpine medows n within hawaiian enklosures waiting 4 th un nd within yu arint we all sew konstruktid
