Welish fuses poetry with visual art and architecture.

In her new collection, Marjorie Welish presents two books in one. In the Futurity Lounge may be read as that de-centered laboratory of the modern futurity lounge where experimental works are in a constant state of being constructed. Her poems are written across, through, and at the expense of urban sites, themselves part architecture, part language, including Roebling's Aqueduct, Wright's Fallingwater, Diller Scofidio + Renfro's High Line, and Rem Koolhaas's student center at Illinois Tech. Asylum for Indeterminacy is an extended zone of research devoted to translation constructed freely from a few given words from prior translations. Baudelaire's Correspondences is the provocation.
