Ing Grish

Yau’s comic and cutting poetry collides with the work of Nozkowski, whom the New Yorker has termed “the Chardin of contemporary abstraction.” The end result is a dazzling and vibrant concoction of visual and written imagery. All the poems in Ing Grish are new, as are Nozkowski’s paintings and illustrations, which he created expressly for this collection.
