THE PALACE OF UNBEARABLE FEELING
The simplicity and symmetry of Anne Riesenberg’s visual poems are at once quiet and compelling. Each poem creates its own vibrant, vibrating world, even as it contributes another facet to the collection as a whole. The aphoristic compression and rhythmic resonance of Riesenberg's patterned texts brings to mind the art of Bashō, Jenny Holzer, and Sol LeWitt, and rings with the echoing beauty of tower bells.
