BlazeVOX @ Burchfield Penney
Featuring a brilliant Poetry Reading:
Michael Basinski, Wade Stevenson, Robin Brox, Michael Kelleher, and Geoffrey Gatza
We are going to have an extravagant BlazeVOX [books] event at a new large art gallery
in Buffalo, The Burchfield Penny on November 10th 2011 from 6 to 8 PM. This will
be a catered event with food and drinks. We are going to have many fun events,
including poetry readings featuring Mike Basinski, Robin Brox and Michael Kelleher.
We are also going to hold a silent auction of artwork. The art will be self-portraits
of local and national poets and book people. Including work from National Book Award
winner Keith Waldrop and the first Canadian Poet Laureate, George Bowering.
My inspiration for these self-portraits was Burt Britton's book, Self-Portrait,
Book People Picture Themselves [http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?llr=helbncdab&et=1108070306399&s=805&e=001bu8sr6w2IFmKL36UTAw0K6MOEeEIPfuhP8cFUsMhX4MaxBAJRpeOQOmns5TdBBYg0Qc6L8J79sUeYCyyAJL2CxDNp88Fxc526MJ-pmYmQl2tlESpB4gIlyl1gF7g8ZxAbEiCo_i_gDI6Of0XCYljGUVgZGq_xHs8pyxY0KTSmig=].
We plan to auction these off to help raise money for BlazeVOX [books] and we will
sell these in a silent auction. The beginning bid will begin at $25. We hope that
