Julia Holter Instagram – Simone Forti’s beautiful show “An Other Pretty Autumn” at @theboxla is up for just a couple more days, until this Saturday, May 21. I was honored to be one of the readers, alongside Emily Mast and Carmela Hermann Dietrich, of Simone’s new poem “Another Pretty Autumn”. Watching Simone’s hands weeding and reading her incredible texts are keeping me inspired in these times

Simone Forti
An Other Pretty Autumn
April 16 – May 21, 2022
“There is an enchantingly awkward feeling that is hard to avoid when surveying Simone Forti’s body of work. To consider the works presented in An Other Pretty Autumn, is to consider her lifetime of work, as if they are one movement that is still in continuity. In this exhibition there is an undeniable weight and lightness to what is being shown, with the container of the exhibition being a new thirteen page poem, Another Pretty Autumn, bringing the movement of her life work to the quiet and gentle stillness of the mind.” | Posted on 19/May/2022 21:47:02
