About Poetry & and 2022, #1, #4

Poetry & was founded at Dia Art Foundation during the coronavirus pandemic, and these noteworthy circumstances circumstances directly inform the ambition of the series: to offer space and support to poets and artists to collaborate on a unique project or experience. […]

Victoria Chang and Dianna Frid were invited to participate in Poetry & because they each have made art with grief at its core. […] Both artists ask us to reconsider what we know about death, how it can generate new meanings and understandings, and how conversations can continue beyond this straightforward yet unfathomable divide. […]
—Kamilah N. Foreman and José Olivarez
