ROGER
SELDEN
Certain of Selden's works are puzzling and
hermetic in their imagery and organization, while
others can be understood as quickly as a blinking
light at a train crossing. Certain works are crowded
with ideas and gestures while others are as clean
and elegant as a commercial designer's sketch.
This visual schizophrenia comes about because
Selden has not stifled one or another contrasting
aspect of his personality for dogma's sake, but
has put the various dialectical contradictions
of his native aesthetic to work for art's sake.

Were
Franco Fontana a poet, a few short and powerful
lines would do:
Kerouac's Route 66 revisited - a last gasp.
So Franco's poems are pictures. Amen.
