Poetic Dialogue

"The Poetic Dialogue: Poetry, Women, Art,"  various media

Curated by artist Beth Shadur

The Poetic Dialogue is a collaborative exhibition of art by 20 Chicago women artists in response to 6 national women poets. Poets Marilyn Chin, Jan Beatty, Judith Vollmer, Lois Roma-Deeley, Margaret Rozga, and Robin Behn, all award-winning writers, submitted their poems for the artists to consider, and 20 ARC Gallery artists created works in a wide variety of media from painting and sculpture to photography, as inspired by the various poems. During the March exhibition, on Friday March 26th, the poets will present poetry readings, and an artist panel & discussion will follow. This exhibition was conceived by Beth Shadur after a Ragdale fellowship, and it is sponsored by the Ragdale Foundation of Lake Forest, IL.  It has also been underwritten by a generous grant from the M.A. Josephine Grisham Foundation. Image by Patricia Otto, with the poet Marilyn Chin
