The artists who have generously donated pieces to 11/11 Art Night to support Paris Press prove, once again, Muriel Rukeyser's claim that all the arts are related: there are no boundaries. Literature is related to painting, to sculpture, history, and science.
11/11 Art Night celebrates the intersection of literature and visual art. All proceeds will go directly to Paris Press to help continue its educational outreach programs and to produce its forthcoming groundbreaking book: Sisters: An Anthology. This collection of short stories, essays, letters, poems, and novel excerpts will include work by Margaret Atwood, Mary Karr, Dorothy Parker, Alice Walker, Ruth Prawer Jhabvala, Maxine Kumin, Catherine Chung, Audre Lorde, Grace Paley, and many others.
