The Eighth Lively Art
Conversations With Painters, Poets, Musicians, and the Wicked Witch of the West
by Wesley Wehr
"The Eighth Lively Art profiles painters Mark Tobey, Pehr Hallsten, Helmi Juvonen, Guy Anderson, and Morris Graves, as well as photographer Imogen Cunningham and gallery owner Zoe Dusanne. Poets Theodore Roethke, Richard Selig, Elizabeth Bishop, and Leonie Adams are characterized, as is philosopher Susanne Langer.
The closing essays tell of friendships with musicians Ernest Bloch and Berthe Poncy Jacobson, and actor Margaret Hamilton (famous for her role as the Wicked Witch of the West in The Wizard of Oz)." "Photographs of each of the artists are included, as is a brief biographical sketch. Throughout, Wehr's own voice, provides the backbone for this series of vignettes."--BOOK JACKET.
