Cookie Jar 2
<p>How does art fit into the life of a writer, as on object of study or as an object of desire? The four pamphlets that comprise Cookie Jar 2 offer a range of possibilities: in the diary pages of an art critic hitting the road with her punk band, looking to check out La Meninas at the Prado; in conversations about Vietnamese socialist realism amid romantic entanglement; in the relay of telepathic artworks by women considered peripheral, and men now canonized; and in a reckoning with the dehumanization of black and indigenous people by the early American circus industry. “Every encounter, no matter how strange or new, eventually reveals the patterns of possibility innate to the life before it,” writes Hannah Black in her essay for this volume, on the life and work of the artist Joseph Yoakum.</p>
