Because one of his favorites among the living—artist James Magee, the creator of the colossal desert stonework, \u003ci\u003eThe Hill\u003c\/i\u003e , and “the alleged” anima incarnate of the mysterious artist Annabel Livermore—has concocted this brew of poems and letters from the lands of Ordinary and Surreal. The poems flutter like butterflies from his imagination as he creates large steel assemblages. Weirdly, “Letters to Goya” are \u003ci\u003efound pieces \u003c\/i\u003e from 1955, from the rickety typewriter of the Duchess of Alba, who in (sur)real life is an old lady who wheel-chairs around the Waikiki Trailer Park in Sweetwater, Texas.
