A new show opens tonight at 5 Traverse Gallery featuring the photographs of Scott Lapham (Sea Song) and the work of Jonathan Bonner (Pooms). What is a ‘poom’? Mr. Bonner explains,
There is now in existence a literary form known as the poom. A poom is a poem that is one syllable long. This exhibition has many iterations of the poom that include an eleven volume boxed set of accordion books, seven limited edition prints of poomagrams and poom embroidered baseball caps. There are even pooms that you can eat.
Opening reception Friday 6pm to 8pm, 5 Traverse Street
There is another opening from 5pm to 9pm for ‘De/Construct II’ at 150 Chestnut Street. Click here for more info and to see what a useless and annoying website looks like. And there’s a third opening before the above-mentioned music starts at 8pm at Machines with Magnets in Pawtucket featuring three artists — paintings by Josie Morway, prints by Katie Truskoski and small sculptural work by Sarah Clover.
