Timelines cover

In Timelines: Writings and Conversations, Bonnie Marranca turns to far-ranging subjects that include the catastrophic imagination, landscape and writing, performance drawing, cultural history, as well as issues of emotion, beauty, and the spiritual in art. Her perspectives on performance, visual arts, media, and drama in the work of Joan Jonas, Caryl Churchill, Raimund Hoghe, Dick Hig­gins, and Meredith Monk highlight the artist in the world and ar­tistic process. Includes personal reflections on the loss of influential artists Carolee Schneemann, Sam Shepard, and Maria Irene Fornes.

Over the years I have been drawn to Bonnie Marranca’s writings and to her sensibilities, which are always exquisitely informed, personally engaged, theoretically penetrating, and poetically illuminating. Her new book of reflections and conversations is a welcome arrival at this moment of great social and political change. The breadth of her interests originates in the cultural life of New York City and then spreads out into the world. She tosses a wide net across the cultural waters, giving us access to her encounters with some of the most compelling artists of the past several decades.
