Over the weekend I became aware of the Poetry Center of Chicago’s<\/strong> <\/a>call for submissions “Poets Look at Paintings”<\/strong> so I thought I’d share that info with you.<\/p>\n

What is sought are ekphrastic poems<\/strong> — deadline is September 21<\/strong>.\u00a0 If your work is chosen you will be expected to read on November 18<\/strong> when the Poetry Center<\/strong> will host a reading event.\u00a0 In 1974 “Poets Look at Paintings”<\/strong> was the Poetry Center’s<\/strong> first-ever live event.\u00a0 The event this fall will revive the original concept: based in ekphrasis, poets perform original poems rooted in visual art in some way, whether that be in response to a piece, in narration, in action, in reflection, etc.<\/p>\n

It’s good to know also that previously published work can be submitted.<\/p>\n

Here is the link<\/strong><\/a> to the guidelines.<\/p>\n

To help you (maybe), I am sharing some details from paintings I recently saw at the Art Institute of Chicago.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

One more thing, I learned about the call from Chicago Artists Resource<\/strong><\/a>, which is a great resource.<\/p>\n

Peace, love, and solace<\/strong><\/p>\n
