Poetry. Bearing the visionary inheritance of ancient Chinese poets and early 20th century painters, Geoffrey Nutter casts a penetrating light into the colorfully shifting landscapes of modern existence. CHRISTOPHER SUNSET is a "correct and masterly play of forms in light," reinvigorating the architecture of society's captive and captivating imagination. "Could it be that Wallace Stevens and Gertrude Stein met in Elysium and had a son named Geoffrey Nutter?"—John Yau.
