Description
“Igor’s “Illuminated Book” is like a new genre. It is a wonderful ekphrastic expression;
a fusion of the arts.” — Poet Mel Takahara
“His collection Is She Available? has the feel of an artifact from the near future – a seminal work of a new genre-fusing poetry, graphic art, music, and animation.” —(San Diego’s) City Beat
“Is SHE Available?” is an experiment, and reading it feels more like an act of discovery… nonetheless, there’s a thrill to scrolling through its pages. It’s an ambitious step toward what digital media can (and will) be.” —The Chicago Tribune
IS SHE AVAILABLE? is a genre-fusing web-nurtured collaboration between Igor Goldkind and 27 artists, sculptors and musicians from the world of Comics, Fantasy, Fine Art and Jazz.
Each artist interprets the written work of their choosing.
This illuminated manuscript is a contemporary Dante’s Divine Comedy; It uses poetry as emotional signposts in an overarching story of one man’s response to the themes of Death and Loss, Sex and Love, and Modern American & Jewish identity while caring for his demented 97 year old mother…
This is a road map to a journey from the depths of depression to the peaks of illumination.
