Helene Black: 1995 :: Poetic Dialogues III

Heliotropio Gallery, Larnaca, Cyprus
Group show
June 1995

Press Release by Nick Lukas

Poetic Dialogues is a series of Group shows initiated by me as a collaborative creative platform between fine artists and poets to present a consciously collective spirit. The relationship between the two arts and the serious mutual influences drawn from the artists of both disciplines is presented, as the title suggests, within the boundaries of a dialogue between the fine artists the poets and the audience. The relationship between the fine arts and poetry is obviously close, with deep historical roots, similar to those that bind music with dance. A work whether it is painting or poetry is an embodiment of many senses, thoughts and emotions. It is an improvised result of an unknown meeting that materializes in different forms. It is also a result of ethical and poetical judgements. The creative thrust is pushing towards the interaction, the dialogue and communication with the language of the senses. Art is the space of mixed subjectivity, a poetic dialogue for one to one.
