Death Self: a collaboration

paintings by Rini Price
poetry by V.B. Price

April 2005

                     

In celebration of National Poetry Month, Contemporary Albuquerque presents a collection of paintings by Rini Price and poetry by V.B. Price. This is a selection from an exhibit at Artspace 116 which is on display through May 13.

Although Rini Price has been making art for over 50 years, her work has only recently been shown in public exhibitions. She wrote, "Being a natural introvert, I worked without feeling the need to be public with what I was producing. It seemed the healthiest thing for me to do." In addition to writing and publishing poetry, V.B. Price is also a political and environmental columnist, novelist, editor, teacher, and non-fiction writer. The two have collaborated since the early 1970s; Rini Price has created cover and interior art for most of V.B. Price's books of poetry. The Prices have been married since 1969, and have lived in the same house and on the same land in the Middle Rio Grande Valley. For more information about V.B. Price, visit vbprice.com.
