Alonzo Davis and The Bamboo Muse

image

I was thrilled to see one of my favorite artists, Alonzo Davis, at the Museum of the African Diaspora in San Francisco last evening. (I’m in SF for a few days for a VERY SPECIAL SECRET PROJECT, which I’ll report on shortly!)

Anyway, Alonzo is here, too, promoting his gorgeous new coffee-table book, The Bamboo Muse. In it, he features a collection of bamboo-inspired works — you’ve seen quite a few of them at his AIR Studios in the LowerTown Arts District in Paducah. And, next to each piece, he features poems by his favorite writers.

Imagine my second thrill to see that Paducah’s own Gabriel Camacho is one of those favorite writers!

Gabe’s piece is on page 10, across from a photo of Alonzo’s “Gateway” installation, located at the Maryland Zoo in Baltimore. Gabe’s piece is titled, “Subject: Last Man Standing.”

I’d publish it here, but I’m thinking you’d much rather buy Alonzo’s book so you can see the full effect! And be sure to have Alonzo and Gabe autograph it for you!

Congratulations to you both!
