Cultural Writing. Poetry. Art. "DURER IN THE WINDOW offers a selection of Guest's work on art written between the 1950's and 2000. It features the early art reviews, collaborations, longer essays, and, of course, poetry. Each component highlights her artistic sensibility, subtle and discrete, full of elegance with an exacting eye. Her work demonstrates the ability of one poet to navigate between the realms of two artistic worlds and maintain an active existence in both. DURER IN THE WINDOW is a showcase of Barbara Guest's writing and a winning example of collaboration itself"--Africa Wayne, editor.

One of the most notable members of the New York School and its most prominent woman, Barbara Guest is the author of over twenty books of poetry and fiction.
