Definitely the best, most piercing and graphic art/poetry exhibition of the Edinburgh Festival (2011). Great to learn from the StAnza blog that this part installation, part photographs by Norman MacBeath and part poetry by Robert Crawford, responses to fragments of Simonides, on view at ECA during last summer's Edinburgh Festival will again be on show. Catch it at the StAnza Poetry Festival in St Andrew's in March 2012.
This has prompted me to upload my photos and write up my Wandering in Art Galleries blog, so please do have a look. See sidebar and click on the photo.
