For his exhibition at the Galerie Almine Rech, John Giorno has chosen to present one year’s work: a set of 52 unpublished drawings, all made in 2008. John Giorno worked on the smaller drawings when he was touring around the world. Several paintings will be also presented: a set of 18 paintings Welcoming The Flowers, and We Gave A Party For the Gods recently shown at the Centre Pompidou in the Traces du Sacré exhibition.
The drawings and paintings are installed on the gallery walls covered by several large poems made into stencils.
Two videos also feature Welcoming The Flowers and Down Comes The Rain, in which the performing poet directs his own performance.
