Description
"This is the first book devoted to the life and work of Bob Cobbing (1920-2002), one of the most adventuresome concrete and sound poets of the second half of the twentieth century. His performances stretched language to its furthest reaches, into shouts, hisses, groans, meshed with more familiar tracts of spoken word. This publication reveals Cobbing to be not only a protean verbal artist, but equally an inspirational organiser and collaborator, playing a decisive role in such important collective initiatives as abAna, the Antiuniversity, Better Books, London Film-makers' Co-op and Writers Forum. Edited by William Cobbing and Rosie Cooper - and illustrated with numerous reproductions of artworks, documents and poems from the Bob Cobbing family collection - Boooook features contributions by Adrian Clarke, Arnaud Desjardin, Sanne Krogh Groth, Will Holder, Gustav Metzger, Marc Matter and Tris Vonna-Michell, Robert Sheppard, David Toop, Steve Willey, Andrew Wilson and Maxa Zoller"-- From back cover.
