Beschrijving
This is a book of poems that is based on the premise that products of art such as musical composition, painting, sculpture, and architecture can serve as stimuli for the development of original poems. These products of art evoke a range of emotions from love, anger, and hate to anxiety, fear, and melancholy; and they can be expressed in original poems. Forty-four works of art were identified; for example, Rachmaninoff’s Second Piano Concerto, Picasso’s Guernica, Michelangelo’s David, and the Great Pyramid of Giza. For each of the works of art an original poem emphasizing feelings and emotions was developed.
