NEW Exhibition: April 21-July 3, 2008
The Beats & Beyond builds on successful prior exhibitions treating Ferlinghetti (2002), Ginsberg (2004), and Kerouac (2005) to launch a broader examination of American counterculture poetry between World War II and the Vietnam War. This exhibition showcases over 100 publications and manuscript items associated with writers from the Black Mountain poets, the Beats, the San Francisco Renaissance, and two generations of the New York School of Poets. It also examines the literary counterculture's engagement with censorship, feminism, Black nationalism, and the Vietnam War. Poets represented include Ginsberg, Kerouac, Charles Olson, Robert Creeley, Diane di Prima, Michael McClure, Frank O'Hara, and Amiri Baraka.
Time & Location: Open during regular RBC hours.
Melba Remig Saltarelli Exhibition Gallery in Wilson Library (3rd floor).
