"Since the early ‘60s, no artist has explored
the boundaries of the idea that ‘Art imitates
life’ more fully than Yvonne Rainer.”
—Artforum

"Here a simple, steady cadence provides
procedural measure for simple, pared-down
words, [plain] yet elegant turns that move
the eyes forward, across, and down the page.”
—Tim Griffin,“Keep moving: the poems of Yvonne Rainer”

Badlands is pleased to announce the publication of Poems by Yvonne Rainer.
Poems is a collection of never before published poetry by choreographer and filmmaker Yvonne Rainer.

The enhanced e-book includes audio of Rainer reading five of the poems, an interview conducted by artist Paul Chan with Rainer about her process as an artist and poet, and a video excerpt of "Trio A" (1966), the legendary dance piece choreographed and performed by Rainer. Read more
