The Imaginary Operagoer: A Memoir
The Poet and the Painters
On April 26, 2024, from 5:30-7:00, the Roswell Visual Arts Center, in Roswell, Georgia, will present “The Poet and the Painters,” an exhibition of 18 paintings created by Vincent Rinehart and Karl Kroeppler in response to the poems of Dana Gioia. The show will also include four sculptures by Barbara Rinehart also inspired by the poems. “The Poet and the Painters” will be a multi-media show in which the paintings will each have a QR code that links visitors to both the text of the poem and a recording of the author reading it aloud.
