THE STARBUCKS TABLETS (PETER GANICK x SNFFBX)
SNFFBX is honored to team up with Peter Ganick once again. Ganick read from his works at The Apocalypse Party in 2012, collaborated on two books, silence, in-action. [01-19] and silence. context. emptiness. [20-36] in 2014, and hung his asemic text art at the “bundeleen” art show at Hartford ArtSpace Gallery in 2018. Now, in 2019, SNFFBX proudly offers a new work entitled, The Starbucks Tablets.
(THIS COLLABORATION WAS NEVER RELEASED AS PLANNED IN 2019. SADLY, PETER PASSED AWAY IN 2020. I AM NOW OFFERING THE TABLETS TO HONOR PETER AND TO CONTINUE TO PUT HIS ART INTO THE WORLD.)
The Starbucks Tablets are 8 plates of original, signed work. From a distance they appear to be the familiar form of Ganick’s asemic text art, but up-close they are actual words filling up each 4 inch x 6 inch tablet.
Peter Ganick was an experimental poet, artist, musician and publisher. He started Potes and Poets Press in the early eighties and published ABACUS, a language poetry newsletter, at about this same time. Ganick published many of the early and most influential language poets including Jackson Mac Low, Charles Bernstein, Ron Silliman, Bruce Andrews, Susan Howe, Clark Coolidge, Joan Retallack, Sheila E. Murphy, and Ray DiPalma. Ganick was an accomplished and prolific poet himself who always continued to write and create everyday: either collaborating with artists across the Internet or sitting in front of a computer and typing words almost endlessly until one book ended and a new one began. Potes and Poets Press is archived at Thomas J. Dodd Research Center at UConn. There is also an extensive archive of Ganick’s work in the Special Collections at Ohio State University.
