Scope and Contents

Gloria Picazo contributed a critical essay opening with a quote by Kolar "Someday it will be possible to make poetry out of anything." Foissage is described when "a mere piece of paper is wrinkled, then flattened down and finally set upon a support. The strange writing left in the piece of paper by the wrinkles is another of the means usedby Kolar to make a poem visible." -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
