UPDATE: BASIL AND MARTHA KING
Madeline Tiger (MHP, 2003) wrote a wonderful appreciation of Basil King's work, published in Jacket 2 this summer, along with a few reproductions of his paintings.
Basil King (whose newest book is on the MHP fall 2015 list) will participate in the the Next Wave Festival at BAM in the premiere of Black Mountain Songs , November 20-23.Seven young composers have made pieces for choral singing inspired by artists associated with Black Mountain College: Charles Olson, Robert Creeley, Buckminster Fuller, and others. The Brooklyn Youth Chorus will perform in this multimedia presentation along with dance, film projections, and Basil King on stage reading excerpts from Fielding Dawson and his own work referring to BMC. Both Basil King and Fielding Dawson will be both represented in a small group show of BMC-associated artists in the Harvey lobby.
See http://www.bam.org/BlackMountainSongs
Basil King has a long poem,"A Pigeon in Delacroix's Garden," in the fall/winter 2014-15 Talisman, and "History is Incomplete Without Art" in the fall 2014 issue of the British magazine, Tears in the Fence.
Martha King (Imperfect Fit, MHP 2004) is one of 29 prose writers in The Wreckage of Reason: Back to the Drawing Board, published this summer by Spuyten Duvil Press. See her blog post: http://www.blog.basilking.net/page/2/The book is available from: https://www.createspace.com/4576201
Martha King will have new poems in the special section of "new women" in the fall/winter 2014-15 issue of Talisman. (Now that her memoir, Outside Inside, is complete, she is returning to poetry!)
