The Berkeley Beat: ART








3.
Words from the Art Passage



William Shakespeare,
 recusant poet
exemplar






Shakespeare, Whitman,
Allen Ginsberg, 
that sounds about right,
Allen tends to hogs the camera,
Note how the artist accented
 Ginsberg's semitism
with that Groucho honker




Tableau of fabric arts





Celtic calligraphic cross




Interjection in Arabic
made solid



Cryptic inscription aglow




A is for Eve's Apple
Fruit of 
the Tree of Knowledge







A Yantra is a 
dharmapada
to the heart of things





Evocative Arabesques
beyond representation,
stairway of smoke








The other side of the cross




4.
The Psychology of Art




Figurines
Appropriated photography



Painting intended to express
inner states of mind




Surrealism essentially





Abstract expressionism
by another name



Fields of exploration 
and chance encounter
ever fecund ever new






5.

Bibliotech
 Objets literaires



Hearth made of books




Clock made of book and brushes





Oh, looking so good,
Books made out of wood




Bookend made out of books





Bookcover
 for "The Burried Child"







 6.
Heavy Impasto
Noir Portraits 
in urban scenes




Anomalisa Roma




Movie theater
on a jet liner





Pickpocket jeopardy
Underground train




3D Ticket-taker










 7.
Making a Street Scene



Easy for her to say

 

 Motorcycle seat corset



 Population

 



T-shirt, jersey jammy bottoms,
socks and sheepskin slippers,
Can't wait to get home
to be so comfy
