Housed in a custom half morocco clamshell box. Exceptionally rare especially signed. Frank O'Hara was one of the great poets of the twentieth century and along with such widely acclaimed writers as Denise Levertov Allen Ginsberg Robert Creeley and Gary Snyder a crucial contributor to what Donald Allen termed the New American Poetry "which by its vitality alone became the dominant force in the American poetic tradition." Frank O'Hara was born in Baltimore in 1926 and grew up in New England; from 1951 he lived and worked in New York both for Art News and for the Museum of Modern Art where he was an associate curator. O'Hara's untimely death in 1966 at the age of forty was in the words of fellow poet John Ashbery "the biggest secret loss to American poetry since John Wheelwright was killed." "Moving in the way that only simple communication can be moving. . . . His poems always manage a fresh start free from the dreadful posturings of the conventional verse of his generation" Kenneth Rexroth The New York Times Book Review. Grove Press hardcover books

In near fine condition. An intimate association copy linking these great artists of the 20th century. The New York School was an informal group of American artists musicians and poets active in New York City throughout the 50s and 60s. At the heart of the group was poet Frank O'Harra due to his post as a curator at the Museum of Modern Art where he created connections between poets and painters including Larry Rivers John Ashberry and Fairfield Porter. The group participated in many joint collaborations including several publications exhibitions and works of art. While the poets of the group often wrote in an immediate and spontaneous manner reminiscent of stream of consciousness writing the painters represented the New York abstract expressionists. The Abstract Expressionism movement in American painting was the first specifically American movement to achieve international influence and put New York City at the center of the western art world a role formerly filled by Paris.
