Collaboration with Tara Geer
Thursday, August 1, 2013
A new collaboration with artist Tara Geer has taken the shape of a book called Carrying Silence, published by Glenn Horowitz in conjunction with Geer's show at the Glenn Horowitz Gallery in August, 2013. One section of my essay for the book can be read on the blog here. The link to an essay I wrote some years ago about Tara and the drawing classes she teaches to André Gregory is below.
