Este cuarto, John Ashbery
El cuarto al que entré fue un sueño de este cuarto. Seguro todos esos pies sobre el sillón eran míos. El retrato oval de un perro era yo de pequeño. Algo resplandece, algo queda en silencio.
Teníamos macarrones que comer cada día menos el domingo, cuando se convencía a una codorniz chica de llenar nuestro plato. ¿Por qué te digo estas cosas? Ni siquiera estás aquí.
Versión al español: Brianda Pineda Melgarejo
This Room JOHN ASHBERY
The room I entered was a dream of this room. Surely all those feet on the sofa were mine. The oval portrait of a dog was me at an early age. Something shimmers, something is hushed up.
We had macaroni for lunch every day except Sunday, when a small quail was induced to be served to us. Why do I tell you these things? You are not even here.

"Non piangerò tutto il tempo né riderò tutto il tempo non preferisco una tendenza all’altra. Vorrei avere l’effetto immediato d’un film brutto,non solo barboso, ma tipo quelle grandi superproduzioni. Voglio essere almeno tanto vivo quanto il kitsch. E se qualche aficionado del mio caos dicesse “Non è da Frank!”, tanto meglio così! Io non metto mica il doppiopetto tutto l’anno, vero? No. Indosso la tuta da lavoro all’opera spesso. Voglio che i miei piedi siano spogli, voglio la mia faccia ben rasata, e il mio cuore… non puoi fare programmi sul cuore, ma la sua parte migliore, la mia poesia, è aperta." - Frank O'Hara . . . www.seunanottedinvernounlibro.it #libri #letteratura #libro #libreriaonline #libreria #book #books #bookstagram #cit #citazione #seunanottedinvernounlibro #frankohara #beatgeneration #johnashbery #librirari #libriusati #primaedizione #mondadori #poesia #poetry #bookpride #instabooks #instabook https://www.instagram.com/p/BrznNPrH_-M/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1qpu55mwpa8aa

‘A Wave’ by John Ashbery, is the inspiration for Andy Mister’s series “An Invisible Terrain”. The poem opens with these lines: “To Pass through pain and not know it, A car door slamming in the night. To emerge on an invisible terrain.” Andy discusses how these works are about how we order the world, through language, through the lens of a camera (or phone), or through thousands of small marks made with pencils and dust, but also how that pursuit must inevitably end in failure.

We are saddened to learn of the passing of the great American poet John Ashbery. In 1999, "Girls on the Run" was published, a piece inspired by the work of Henry Darger. It brought a newfound audience for the artist. Ashbery was a critic and connoisseur of art, and had been the editor of ARTnews Magazine in the early 70s. Read today's obituary in The New York Times :

In the increasingly convincing darkness/ The words become palpable, like a fruit/ That is too beautiful to eat/ -John Ashbery, The Explanation I love this photo of two beloved American poets - John Ashbery and Frank O’Hara. Dear friends and “Harvard men” who escaped the clichés of mid-century life; queer in every single brilliant sense of the word. Now both are gone. #inmemoriam #rip #johnashbery #frankohara #poets #poetry #harvard
