Wilbur was a words-smith extraordinaire, and I have a special fondness for his writing. At a time when lesser poets were beating the drum for free-form modernism, he was quietly perfecting the formal approach with its intricate rhymes and traditional structures. All this served up with wit and elegance.
'The Nature of Glass' is curated by Jim Schantz of Schantz Galleries and features a diverse range of media and styles, with some created in response to sources of inspiration found by the artists at Chesterwood.
