Thank you for this posting! Poets on Site, our group of Southern California Poets has written hundreds of poems inspired by the art of Milford Zornes. Since his 100th birthday celebration we performed programs celebrating Zorne’s art in The San Marino Gallery, Pasadena, Bill Anderson’s own Gallery, where this exhibit is current, The Anderson Gallery in Sunset Beach, and also at the Chaffey Museum in Rancho Cuchamonga. We also have poems not yet performed on works by Zornes that were displayed at the Rierside Museum and another group of the ‘Black and White’s from yet another exhibit. This is a testimony to his great and inspiring works! He lives in the hearts of all of our poets.
