Nightboat Books is, according to its website, “a nonprofit publishing company dedicated to printing original books of poetry and prose, and bringing out-of-print treasures back to life.”
Bern Porter’s Found Poems, a collection previously published in 1972 by Dick Higgins’ Something Else Press, is surely one of those treasures, and we are fortunate now to have easy access to such a singular text. This handsome reprint — which includes a foreword by David Byrne, an introduction by Joel Lipman, and a creative afterword by Mark Melnicove — should become a key reference in current discussions about the poetics and ethics of copying and textual appropriation in the long twentieth century. In order to fully appreciate the curious collages that Porter called “founds,” we need to first distinguish Porter’s compositions from the found poetry that was popular in the late 60s and early 70s. It is important to note that this list is from just one page from Found Poems’ nearly 400 pages. Surrealism in 2012: Surrealists and friends.

Artists at work: Brothers in exile. RAMIN and Rokni Haerizadeh, two Iranian artists exiled in Dubai, fled their homeland in spring 2009.
Iranian officials became aware of their work when it was included in Charles Saatchi's exhibition, “Unveiled: New Art from the Middle East”. Armed with a catalogue, representatives from Iran's Ministry of Intelligence and National Security descended on Tehran's art galleries, pointed at Ramin Haerizadeh's partially naked self-portraits (from his “Men of Allah” series) and asked, “Do you know this man?” They then raided a patron's house, confiscated two of the artist's works and threatened the collector with four months in prison. MIRA’S LIST. The Perry Bible Fellowship. Artists talking. About. About recent work: Qustioning- I am curious about our society’s relationship with uncertainty, contingency and multiplicity.
This relationship helps us understand our human tendency to minimize the complexities around us into narrow and selected viewpoints. In trying to pin down one aspect of truth to make sense of our world, we then neglect other aspects of it. Using available and vernacular media such as stories passed-down, and appropriated audio/visual clips, I attempt to highlight and emphasize, mute and mask my materials, until the work begins to weave through alternative avenues of meaning-making.
The result expresses the way I gain insight through the logic of art into the complexities that emerge in daily life. Sarah Koljonen. January 2010. Above: Kelp Bikini 2000, Below: Oranges and Lemons 2006.
Threaded. Maurizio Cattelan by Michèle Gerber Klein. I met Maurizio Cattelan when we were seated beside each other at the dinner for the opening of Skin Fruit , the show of selections from Dakis Joannou’s fabled collection curated by Jeff Koons for the New Museum in March 2010. Maurizio was at my left. I knew some of his work from many museums both here and abroad, but I had no idea who he was. I’d never seen his face.
And I didn’t recognize his name because while my memory for images is photographic, my memory for names is practically void. I liked his nose. I reacted to this embarrassing situation by asking him a lot of personal questions and was taken because he answered very simply, without edge. By the time Skin Fruit was reviewed, I had put Maurizio’s face, name, and oeuvre together and linked the multilayered metaphors embodied in the seamless simplicity of his cyclical imagery to the playfully irreverent intricacies of the metaphysical sonnets.
