Self-Portrait in a Convex Mirror

Self-Portrait in a Convex Mirror, a portfolio featuring John Ashbery’s 1973 Pulitzer Prize-winning poem has been letterpress-printed on sheets of circular, handmade paper. Interspersed between the pages of text are images by artists such as Richard Avedon, Jim Dine, Elaine de Kooning, and Willem de Kooning. Ashbery describes as the portofolio as “taking the poem away from itself and amplifying it in ways I had never anticipated.”
