Exchanging Hats: Paintings Paperback - 2011
by Elizabeth Bishop; William Benton (Editor)
From the rear cover
When the distinguished art critic Meyer Schapiro said that Elizabeth Bishop "writes poems with a painter's eye", Bishop was "very flattered: I'd love to be a painter". The fact is - though not many knew it - she painted throughout her life, as this handsome book, reproducing in full color forty of her works, demonstrates. The paintings were tracked down, identified, and collected by the poet and art writer William Benton, who arranged the first exhibit of Bishop's artwork (twenty-seven pieces) in January 1993 at the East Martello Tower Museum as part of the Key West Literary Seminar on Bishop's writing. William Benton gives the provenance, dimensions, and (where possible) the date of each work. In the second half of the book, he also cites many painterly passages from Bishop's writing.
