Book excerpt: Corrected Slogans represents a vital discourse on conceptual practices in contemporary art and poetry. In conjunction with the exhibition “Postscript: Writing After Conceptual Art” organized by the Museum of Contemporary Art in Denver, the online magazine Triple Canopy hosted a series of public conversations between some of the most innovative artists and poets working today. The symposium “Poems for America” asked how conceptual strategies of writing have transformed conventional notions of expression. “Automatic Reading,” a seminar-style roundtable, focused on reading as a creative practice, and the book as a material object and social signifier. Corrected Slogans features annotated transcripts of these events, which include contributions from Erica Baum, Franklin Bruno, Corina Copp, Michael Corris, Jim Fletcher, Aaron Kunin, Margaret Lee, K. Silem Mohammad, Ken Okiishi, R. H. Quaytman, Katie Raissian, Ariana Reines, Mónica de la Torre, Gretchen Wagner, and Matvei Yankelevich, along with new essays, artworks, and poetry. More than merely documenting discussions, however, Corrected Slogans activates the book as a site of creative production, enacting an expanded notion of publishing as a mode of critical inquiry.
