Auster’s effulgent ekphrasis on Blakelock’s 'Moonlight':

I'm very excited to be presenting my paper as part of my PhD on 'Dictionary of Motion: Francis Bacon’s ‘Picturing Ekphrasis’' at the 'We Need To Talk About Art' international symposium. Oz has done a brilliant job organising this alongside Cassandra. Can't wait!

et si j’écrivais des ekphrasis ?

Inked love on her cheek,
Amanda's story we seek,
Ekphrasis unique.

Grateful to novella club for letting me jabber on my theory that Lisa Tuttle's Helen Ralston (MY DEATH, NYRB Classics ) is based on H. D.

I blame David Zwirner's ekphrasis series for my suspicion. 🖤 Would love to know your theories on Ralston!

We are excited to be hosting Sara Moore Wagner in Paris soon! Please join us on Saturday, May 18th to hear her read from her newest collection, Lady Wing Shot, and discuss biographical ekphrasis, writing away from 'The Wild West' and firearms, and the souvenir of women's lives.

One for the first time
I put my finger
On your bottom lip

An international symposium will mark the end of a two-year research project on ekphrasis – written descriptions of pieces of art – carried out by Oz Hardwick, Professor of Creative Writing at Leeds Trinity University.

If you are interested in painting and/or the possibilities of ekphrasis I simply cannot recommend this series enough. Worth travelling for.

Looking forward to running this new #creativewriting course! Please share if you can... #poetry #ekphrasis #artmuseum
