Ezra Pound 130th Anniversary

















Ezra Pound, 1913 
by Alvin Langdon Coburn (detail) 



I have tried to write Paradise 

Do not move 
             Let the wind speak
                     that is paradise. 

Let the Gods forgive what I 
                    have made 
Let those I love try to forgive 
                     what I have made. 

- Ezra Pound - 
from Canto CXX 

October 30, 1885 – November 1, 1972 























Ezra Pound with his 3 cats, 
Ezra only friends by the end of his tragic life. 

We Love You, Sire

Oscar Wilde Birthday ♥♥


















Agitators are a set of interfering, meddling people, who come 
down to some perfectly contented class of the community
and sow the seeds of discontent amongst them. That is the reason why agitators are so absolutely necessary. 
Without them, in our incomplete state, there would be no advance towards civilization.

The death row inmates of Riverbend Maximum Security Institution, the unlikely artists behind the current Life and Death and Elsewhere exhibition at New York's Apexart Gallery, understand this all too well. 
They know it intimately, and in ways that we cannot possibly fathom. Theirs is a double tragedy from which it would seem they cannot escape. But the works in the exhibition suggests otherwise.
