Description:

This book is more than a Zen commentary on modern art and the New York art scene... It is itself the art. This is not essay, not poetry, not documentation. This is art. Both Buddhism and Sufism have a technique for revealing truth/essence/reality by denying that which is not essential. This poem is a poignant expose of the contemporary art scene which cuts away the superficial aspects of art to reveal its truth, its essence. It becomes one of the most eloquent definitions of art itself. A great gift for any artist, student, or seeker of reality.
