Spore

SCORE 5: Inside Back Cover

A wee bit of history above. The magazines listed above were some of those publishing concrete/visual poetry at the time (circa 1986?). I'll scan work from these magazines in the future.

Mail art exhibitions were also vibrant venues for concrete/visual work.

SPORE 2.1, Ekphrastic Writing, Still Looking for Submissions

SPORE 2.1's still got lots of holes. It's still got lots of room still!

I'll continue to read writing in response to paintings, sculpture, photography, performance -- lit in response to art... I'll read until... I hope to get this issue early in 2006.

I'm especially looking for commentary about ekphrastic writing, its openings, its limitations, exemplary works previously published... Please query.
