Subduing Demons in America: Selected Poems 1962-2007 - Paperback
by John Giorno (Author), Marcus Boon (Editor)
John Giorno was an American poet and visual artist. From his studio on the Bowery, where he lived and worked for over fifty years, Giorno's practice grew beyond poetry to encompass film, painting, sound installation and much more. An early pioneer of recorded spoken word projects, he founded the nonprofit Giorno Poetry Systems in 1965, which produced albums with hundreds of artists and poets. Giorno is best known for his interactive telephone work "Dial-A-Poem," first presented in 1968, which invited people to call into a dedicated line to hear poems from live recordings by Laurie Anderson, John Ashbery, Frank O'Hara, and numerous others. He died in 2019.
