""Michael Mazur's approach to the Inferno gave me inspiration and guidance in understanding Dante. The monotypes, nourished by the artist's intense engagement with the poetry, are themselves acts of translation, embodying vital principles."—Robert Pinsky, from the preface A unique collection that revisits Dante's classic with translations by former Poet Laureate Robert Pinsky and full-color artwork by internationally renowned artist Mich ..."
"The one quality that all classic works of literature share is their timelessness. Shakespeare still plays in Peoria 400 years after his death because the stories he dramatized resonate in modern readers' hearts and minds; methods of warfare have changed quite a bit since the Trojan War described by Homer in his Iliad, but the passions and conflicts that shaped such warriors as Achilles, Agamemnon, Patroclus, and Odysseus still fin ..."

"In the INFERNO, Dante embarks upon a journey through the gyres of hell in an exploration of the darkest elements of existence. Capturing the true spirit of the original, Robert Pinkst's new verse translation of the Inferno is all a poem, and shows the contemporary reader,as no other version in English has done, why Dante is universally considered a poet of great power, intensity and vision."
"Truffaut,. François. (1932–1984). François Truffaut survived childhood poverty
and neglect to become one of the most highly regarded film directors of the 20th
century. The stylistic innovations of his first films helped inspire the French New
Wave in the early 1960s, but his legacy is a body of work that explores the
difficulty of finding love in a world that seems loveless. That he created these
stories of longing with such a str ..."
"A travers les lueurs que tourmente le vent La Prostitution s'allume dans les rues;
Comme une fourmilière elle ouvre ses issues; Partout elle se fraye un occulte
chemin, Ainsi que l'ennemi qui tente un coup de main; Elle remue au sein de la
cite de fange Comme un ver qui dérobe à l'Homme ce qu'il mange. On entend c,a
et la les cuisines siffler, Les théâtres glapir, les orchestres ronfler; Les tables d'
hôte, dont le jeu fait les déli ..."

Fund (1978. 664.1-2). slightly angled, and it interests me as an image. I had not
planned to do it. I walk into the studio, and I start to make that image. Again, the
advantage of monotype is that I'm not walking into the studio to complete the work
of the day before. As a printmaker, my habit would have been to walk into the
studio, pick up the plate that had ..."

"This book focuses on three contemporary painters who have found profound inspiration in Chinese art. Brice Marden, Michael Mazur, and Pat Steir have engaged in passionate relationships with various art forms from China and responded quite differently in their paintings. The successful hybridization of East and West witnessed in the work of these three artists has considerably extended the life of modernism by reemphasizing its latent As ..."
