Burchfield's Seasons
Lawrence A. Fleischman, John I. H. Baur

Kennedy Galleries, 1982

The paintings of Charles Burchfield (1893-1967) have a unique quality that express the haunting mystery and the poetic rhythm of nature, as it changes from moment to moment, season to season. So individual are his visions that they challenge conventional categorization yet they are immediately familiar to all who can see and feel the poetry within them. (45 color illustrations)

Depends on the Readers
HI, With Joyful Noise/I Am Phoenix on tape how much you like it really really really depends on the readers/performers. The best one I've heard was by Lloyd and Twomey. The poems are meant for only 2 voices, so I don't understand why some publishers have more than 2 people doing them. I've listened to other performances and some have been HORRID -- my 8yo dd made me turn them off they were so ...

Kennedy Galleries, 1977

Dark Art
CHARLES E. BURCHFIELD AT KENNEDY GALLERIES brings together early drawings and watercolors, along with the later "House and Trees in the Snow." The artist liked to paint nature, particularly as a reflection of his own moods: the expressionist "Battleships," the dramatic "Landscape with Sunflowers," the Oriental "Snow Flakes" and the boisterous "Storm in Sunlight." But straight steel bands took ...
