Inspired Georgia:
|
The objective of the format is that the poetry and photography do not seek to explain one another but rather begin a conversation with one another and invite the reader to seek a deeper understanding of the imagery provided by each and their connection to one another. A landscape portfolio by photographer Diane Kirkland is placed at the center of the book to root readers in Georgia as a sense of place. Available in the AMA's Hodges Sales Gallery, the book, Inspired Georgia is a co-publication with Georgia Council for the Arts, GA Poet Laureate Judson Mitcham, University of Georgia Press, Atlanta Celebrates Photography, Georgia Humanities, and the National Endowment for the Arts and was fueled by a shared desire by the partners to honor Georgia as a nexus of creativity. |
