Organized by poets Dorothea Lasky and Laura Solomon in conjunction with artist and gallery owner Tim Bowen, Parallel Bars will pair poetry with visual art whose messages converse with one another by means of form, process and subject matter. By offering this microcosm of existing relationships, the series hopes to provide audience participants with an opportunity to discover larger connections between sight and sound, time and space, and individual and collective experiences.
