Glenn Ligon (b. 1960, Bronx, NY)
Give us a Poem (Palindrome #2), 2007 Gift of the Artist
After a speech by Muhammad Ali at Harvard University in 1975, a student asked Ali to give the audience a poem, Ali replied, “me, we.” As a star athlete and celebrated spokesman for political awareness in the black community and beyond, Ali imbued those two words with poetic and political meaning that resonated long after the crowd dissipated. Arguably one of the shortest poems ever recited, “me, we” highlighted the intimate relationship between the individual and the community. Here, Ali’s poignant verse is commemorated in a neon installation by Glenn Ligon. Give us a Poem introduces us to Ligon’s Characteristic appropriation of provocative texts and visuals that engage the viewer or spectator in both historical and current discourses on identity and contemporary art.

For those who came of age during the war on terror, for whom adolescence was announced by 9/11 and for whom failed wars, a massive recession, and a total surveillance apparatus were the paranoid gifts of our adulthood, Lana Del Rey gives us a patriotism we can act out. Hers isn’t a love song to America; it’s a how-to manual. (via Ms. America – The New Inquiry)

“Tumblr is like being underwater. There’s no sense of time. It’s this continuous stream and a constantly renewing source. It’s hard to remember ever being above the sea once you’ve submerged yourself in the water.”
— Kate Durbin in conversation at Hyperallergic.
