This book is PRO FOUND and PRO FUN! C. Mehrl Bennett comes from a fine arts background; B.A. in painting and drawing, spent many years as a mail artist, and has an art exhibit history from the 80’s and early 90’s that focused on junk assemblage (found objects- thus the claim for PRO FOUND). This work in this book combines her creative spirit of play using digital software with a longtime interest in visual poetry and includes collaborations (in the spirit of mail art). C. Mehrl Bennett lives in Columbus, OH, with spouse (they met through mail art), poet John M. Bennett. Her word art has been published in Lost&Found Times, Vispoeology, Otoliths, www.nakedsunfish.com, Womb, Word For/Word, and Black Box. Two reviews are posted under book details on the Lulu site by Sheila E Murphy and Bob Grumman.

These works were created in 2008, when, per Thomas Cassidy, "I committed myself to doing 1,000 drawings in 2008 - roughly 100 a month or 3.33 per day allowing two months off for vacations and idle drinking." John M. Bennett is primarily a poet. John and Tom have corresponded through the mail for decades and the two of them are the primary collaborators for this book, with a generous sprinkling of works done with these other artist/poets: Sheila E. Murphy, Mark Sargent, Baron, Jukka Pekka Kervinen, Reed Altemus, Scott Helmes, Luigino Solamito, and Rea Nikonova. A total of 100 full-color images are here to drown in.

THE SOCK SACK   UNFINISHED FICTIONS   MORE INSERTS

Three differing approaches to some exciting and mind-bending wordplay and enrichment of meaning in language. The first section, The Sock Sack by John M. Bennett, consists of innovative “haiku” using multiple meanings, “fake” language, graphic symbolism, syntactic reversals and other devices to create moments of intense and constantly shifting perception. The second consists of a selection of Richard Kostelanetz’ Unfinished Fictions which are minimalist texts suggesting numerous broader narrative possibilities. Each text is accompanied by a “Distillation” by Bennett, which is a discovery of sometimes mysterious, sometimes humorous subtexts hidden within the words of the originals. The last section, Kostelanetz’ More Inserts, explores the innards of words, to reveal the lexicon and concepts hidden in almost every word we use, showing how our language is multi-layered and more meaningful than we ordinarily imagine.
