Synopsis
Poetry. Art. Poems by Steve Kowit. Drawings and Watercolors by Lenny Silverberg. Although humor can be a switchblade of critical deconstruction and these guys can swing it with the best of them, right here, right now, they're going for soul. Cutting deeper. So get ready. They render a double dose, slicing to the bone with achingly fine-tuned artistry. Kowit and Silverberg have each honed their characteristic styles down to a focused, reductive form--accomplished contrarianly (as is their wont) by addition. Kowit plus Silverberg equals way more than two. Yet together, they reduce abstract social, political and economic issues to something more basic: representational humanity.
