VANITAS 5 : FILM

VANITAS 5 takes on film, to see what meanings attach to the word, what it is to have a screen between things, a boundary, lining, partition. A poem made of movie titles, poems to movies, a poem in the mind of a filmmaker, a twinning of image to one's word, cinemabilia. New poems by Rae Armantrout, John Ashbery, Michael Basinski, Michael Brownstein, Tom Clark, Clayton Eshleman, Nada Gordon, Richard Hell, Anselm Hollo, Gerard Malanga, Eileen Myles, Jerome Sala, David Shapiro, Tony Towle, Anne Waldman, and many more. Featured artwork by filmmakers Volker Schlöndorff and Hannes Schüpbach, plus Elaine Equi's Cinema Tarot and Jim Feast on contemporary epic.
