Böcker av Andy Fitch

Adopting artist-poet Joe Brainard as its principal focus, this project presents "e;Pop poetics"e; not as a minor, coterie movement meriting a sympathetic footnote in accounts of the postwar era's literary history, but as a missing link that confounds and potentially unites any number of supposedly rigid critical distinctions (authenticity versus formalism, the "e;personal"e; versus the mechanical). Pop poetics matter, argues Andrew Fitch, not just to the occasional aficionado of Brainard's I Remember, but to anybody concerned with reconstructing the dynamic aesthetic exchange between postwar art and poetry.
