In this program titled Urban Renewal: A Painter and a Poet Collaborate, poet Major Jackson and painter Jill Moser speak about their collaborative series of prints titled Urban Renewal with Center for Book Arts Programs Manager Jenna Hamed.
The pair discuss connections between the written word and visual art as well as their views on collaboration as a generative tool.
Jackson reads poems featured in the Urban Renewal prints, a selection of which were on view in Center for Book Arts’ summer 2021 exhibition Summer Reading curated by Lindsey Landfried and Ann Tarantino.
