This review of the exhibition "Carl Andre: Sculpture as Place, 1958- 2010" at Dia: Beacon is by Holland Cotter. It describes how "Writing poetry was Mr. Andre's initial calling...Even if he had not gone on to art, the poetry would be of interest. And in it, the sculptor-to-be is already evident. Mr. Andre has referred to his poems as 'typewriter drawings' and, in the spirit of Concrete poetry, their shape on the page is crucial to their effect." -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
