KWH: Poems (in Color) by Bernadette Mayer
Brodsky Gallery Opening, Curated by Emily Rush (C'19)
  • Monday, April 1, 2019 - 6:00pm to 7:00pm

Arts Cafe, Kelly Writers House, 3805 Locust Walk


Join us for a discussion of our newest Brodsky Gallery show, with poet Bernadette Mayer and show curator, Emily Rush (C’19).

Bernadette Mayer is a synesthete who sees letters in color. For this Brodsky Gallery show, Emily Rush (C’19) produced a Pantone alphabet key, matching Mayer’s synesthetic vision as closely as possible, and then re-typed a series of Mayer’s poems. The show features art by Alyson del Pino (C ’21), Autumn Wynde (C ’19), Kayla Ephros, Laynie Browne, and more.
