21 October 2004. I still haven't finished the text of my presentation, but only have a few paragraphs to write about the exercises I'll be talking about, so should get it done today. (It's only a little after eight in the morning as I write this. I'll leave to sub around noon.) Anyway, I haven't time to work up much of a blog entry, so will go with four reproductions of Klee paintings that will be part of my presentation, because they are textual. The top one is "Picture Page." I chose it because of its archaeoverbalization. The next I'm using as an example of an artwork that depicts but is not a document, and so not a visual poem, but--in my terminology--a textagraph, or work of textual graphics. It's called, simply, "Document." The other two are "Garden Gate M" and "Villa R," two obvious textagraphs that illustrate the resonance a simple letter used as part of a design can add to an illumage.
