About the Exhibition:
This exhibition marks the first comprehensive exploration of the collaborative works of poet, author, and art critic John Yau. For the past five decades, Yau has partnered with a diverse array of visual artists, creating an extraordinary collection of paintings, mixed media works on paper, print portfolios, artist books, and letterpress broadsides. Through these collaborations, Yau has demonstrated his deep commitment to exploring the myriad forms poetry can take, reflecting his belief that “I’m into every way a poem can be done.”
