Go, Lovely Rose | A Letter from Maureen Bloomfield
The poet sends a rose to his beloved; with our November 2011 issue, we send a garland of roses to you. For Colin Berry, whose renderings of roses appear here and on the cover of this issue, the rose is an edifice, almost marmoreal. Berry loves “the shapes of the petals, how they fold over one another, how they twist in space and catch the light.” Jimmy Wright, in contrast, sees ephemerality, the rose on its way to dissolution. Wright’s radiant obsession is time, which historically the rose is an emblem of. See how Dana Levin, Birgit O’Connor and Sandra Sallin, along with Berry and Wright, reinterpret the favorite subject of Henri Fantin-Latour and Édouard Manet in “Gather Ye Rosebuds.”
