"SKYE OR MIRANDA OR VERANDAH": VARIATIONS ON KEVIN CONNOLLY'S 'PLENTY'
Is original authorship possible? Does true art only exist in the act of interpretation? At what point does homage become theft? To shed some light on such aesthetic conundrums, Kevin Connolly offers up his poem "Plenty" for plunder and plagiarism by artists from a variety of disciplines. From Connolly's acclaimed new collection, Revolver (House Of Anansi Press), "Plenty" will be the main source of ideas, inspiration, letters, words, sounds and images for the artists – and for the audience.
