In all these areas, Drucker has made substantial contributions. But it is her synthesis of these fields that is her most extrardinary achievement."

In the section "The Interior Eye: Performing the Visual Text," Drucker traces visual poetry in the perfomance work of Massin & Ionesco's "The Bald Soprano," Tzara's "Boxe," Marinetti's "At Night," Iliazd "Lendentua as Beacon," and Gomringer's "Ping Pong" and other icons of visual poetry.In the section, "Iliazd and the Book as a Form of Art," Drucker discusses and/or illustrates the...
