Arts Round Table
This page was launched June 1, 2008 and most recently
updated Friday, August 08, 2008
Inspired by my former Central Illinois Visual Arts Gallery (CIVAG) project, this new page was creatted to foster the same goals inspired by CIVAG while narrowing the focus of the enterprise. As it comes online June 1, 2008, I ask first time visitors to be patient with what promises to be a long period of reconstruction of this site, using text and many images saved from the previous enterprise. |
CONTENTS Arts Links -- arts organizations I'm familiar wtih, that have been kind to me OR are so competent and praiseworthy, it's not necessary for them to be kind to me. Art Seen -- Pictures from visits to Springfield area galleries and featuring some of my favorite local artists. Brotherhood of Jobs -- Probably the most mis=pronounced three-letter name in the Western alphabet, here is what I know of people, dogs and things named Job The Photography of Job Conger -- Yes, I'm a feature photographer, but here are pictures I consider special. If you visit often, you may catch a short-run compendium of pictures taken at parties and special events and posted here for friends and strangers encountered at those events. The Poetry of Job Conger -- I write poetry. Here are some of my recent poems and information about how to own my books of poetry. The Poet Speaks I also present a "one man show" in the tradition of "Give 'Em Hell Harry" and Hal Holbrook as Mark Twain. Mine is about the life, times and poems of Springfield, Illinois citizen and poet Vachel Lindsay. Recommended Reading Books sent to Job Conger for review are brought to your attention here. It's not a whitewash, but I write the reviews with a keyboard; not paintbrush and not a hatchet. Maybe these reviews will open windows and opportunities and inspiration for you. Take a look and see what you think. Vachel Lindsay pages - I share pages of information and poems by and about Vachel Lindsay, photos of events at Vachel Lindsay Home State Historic Site and beyond, and news of interest to Vachel Lindsay fans. Springfield Classical Guitar Society -- Photos, news of the 2008/2009 concert season and and reviews of cCDs by artists whose Springfield concerts sponsored by the organization. Washington Street Jazz Festival -- I volunteered at this terrific event June 28, 2008 and took a bunch of pictures. Conger Family of North America --Job's genealogical pages |
