Excerpt from A B C D E (2021) by Charlotte Jung (Stockholm, Sweden)  (Image courtesy of the artist) I am thrilled to welcome visual poet Charlotte Jung to the international list of poets and artists who are making The New Concrete Poetry blog an increasingly popular location to see the latest work in this exciting genre. Two goals of mine have intersected in this post: (1) I want to devote more attention to minimalist concrete poetry and (2) I have been very impressed by the minimalist work of Charlotte Jung. Charlotte and I are correspondents. Thanks to her kindness, we can look forward to seeing her exciting innovations.  The selections here come from Charlotte's chapbook A B C D E published by Trombone in Gothenburg, Sweden, in their Svavel Series (23) (2021). - De Villo Sloan October 30, 2024 Excerpt from  A B C D E  (2021) by Charlotte Jung (Image courtesy of the artist) Excerpt from  A B C D E  (2021) by Charlotte Jung (Image courtesy of the artist...
