270 Replies

Off_Sullivan_Lane002-2-742x402Richard Taylor, Kentucky’s poet laureate from 1999-2001 (and author of Fading into Bolivia), unveiled his paintings, drawings, and wood engravings last night at the Jane Chancellor Moore Gallery in downtown Frankfort. The show is called “Mapping the Local”. Described as “deceptively simple”, Taylor’s work demonstrates an “economy of line and stroke [that] echoes his efficiency of words in his verse”.

FlyerYou can enjoy the exhibit until July 25th, but don’t miss the reception this Friday, May 23rd from 5-7PM where Richard Taylor will give a speech as well as read from his newest poetry collection, Rain Shadow (2014 Broadstone Books).

For more details, check out the official JCM Gallery page at Broadstone Books.

    When I originally commented I appear to have clicked the -Notify me when new comments are added- checkbox and from now on every time a comment is added I receive four emails with the exact same comment.
    Is there an easy method you are able to remove me from that service?
    Kudos!

    Can I just say what a comfort to discover someone that genuinely
    knows what they are talking about over the internet.
    You definitely understand how to bring a problem to light and make it important.

    More and more people really need to read this and understand this side of your story.
    It’s surprising you’re not more popular since you definitely possess the gift.
