ELLINE LIPKIN: THE BODY ELECTRIC: GENERATING NEW WORK
Poets have been writing about the body for as long as there have been poems. This workshop takes on this ancient theme and makes it new again. Students will try a variety of exercises to generate new work and look at a range of poems, which explore the body as its central theme. We'll also talk about the body of a poem and what construction makes for a satisfying body of work. This workshop will be thought-provoking, generative, and open to all ranges of ability and creative interest. Bring a work in progress, or create a new poem in class.
