Magnificent paintings are never static scenes in Ed Ruzicka's charged reveries, but become fluid stories much as the painters must have stroked them to life in the throes of their creation. More dreams than narratives these vivid, muscular poems are acts of authentic imaginative looking unfettered by schoolish pretentiousness. "Her fingers are igniting the keys," Ruzicka says of the figure in Edward Pramuk's A Night Walk in Clara's Room - thus reigniting the work. -William Hathaway, author of "The Right No", et al. |
