The exhibition Volatile! brings together poetry and scent with complex aromas trapped under cloches, in a book of poems written entirely in scent, and scent-objects inspired by poetry and literature, inviting visitors to experience their sense of smell–and poetry–in a new way.
Online, view David Moltz discussing narrative structure in perfume and a demonstration of Amy Radcliffe’s analogue odor camera.
See and smell the exhibit at the Poetry Foundation Gallery, 61 W Superior Street, Chicago 11–4, Monday–Friday, now through February 19, 2016.
The building will be closed to the public from December 24–January 4.
