WILL ALEXANDER: IMAGINAL FERTILITY
The purpose of this workshop is not concerned with the superimposition of texts, but with discussion and verbal exercise designed to free the imagination from consensus entrainment, thereby igniting imaginal fertility.

WILL ALEXANDER is the Poet-in-Residence at Beyond Baroque. He works in multiple genres. In addition to being a poet, he is also a novelist, essayist, aphorist, playwright, philosopher, visual artist, and pianist. His influences range from poetic practitioners, such as Aimé Césaire, Bob Kaufman, Andre Breton, Antonin Artaud, and Philip Lamantia, to the encompassing paradigm of Sri Aurobindo’s Integral Yoga, and the Egyptian worldview as understood by Cheikh Anta Diop and R.A. Schwaller de Lubicz.

Read more about Will here.

There will be no Professional Workshop on the third Saturday in December 2015.

We will be back next year February!

GAIL WRONSKY’s newest book, The Shortest Farewells are the Best, is a collection of flash noir poems co-authored with novelist Chuck Rosenthal. She is the author of eleven other books of poetry, prose, and translations.
