Fine Arts Gallery at University of B. C.
Concrete Poetry, a four-part exhibition organized by Alvin Balkind, was seen at the Fine Arts Gallery at the University of B.C. from March 28 through April 19. It was probably the most fertile show mounted in Vancouver for several years in terms of the range and distinction of ideas presented and the possibilities demonstrated both for the making and the consideration of art.
The four parts included: a fairly broad survey of the work of many of the best-known concrete poets from around the world; a large selection of slides of works not available for the exhibition or previously exhibited elsewhere
