Bukowski famously wrote “don’t do it / unless it comes out of / your soul like a rocket, / unless being still would / drive you to madness or / suicide or murder, / don’t do it. / unless the sun inside you is / burning your gut, / don’t do it.” In this poem, the poet in raw and unambiguous language, rejects pretension and artifice in favor of the sheer struggle and intensity of a true
and authentic artistic practice. In celebration of the compulsivity of creativity, this exhibit pairs visual artists with poets to create something breathtakingly new. The artist and poet pairs have complete freedom in their collaborations.
