Jeremy D. Adler

    1 oktober 1947

    Jeremy Adler onderzoekt primair taal en haar visuele en poëtische kwaliteiten in zijn werk. Zijn schrijven duikt in hoe woorden en teksten niet alleen gelezen, maar ook gezien kunnen worden, en hoe deze visuele dimensie hun literaire betekenis verrijkt. Adler overbrugt vaak traditionele literaire vormen met hedendaagse benaderingen, waardoor nieuwe betekenislagen voor de lezer worden onthuld. Zijn eigen poëzie kenmerkt zich door een speelse omgang met taal en een diepe contemplatie van de essentie ervan.
