A strange poem on a failed painting

By Jack Brummet



I found this old painting I did (maybe 20 years ago). It was stashed away somewhere at my in-laws mansion, and surfaced as people were cleaning it out.  The painting was failed, clearly.  It had scratch outs and cancellation marks all over the canvas.  But I'd also tried to write a poem on a patch of red paint.

Paintings: Faces #632 and #633: Portrait of Chou En-Lai

By Jack Brummet

I have had the second picture on the wall for years.  But today when I took it down to bring it to my office, I discovered I had done another painting on the back.

This silk poster was originally a portrait of Chou En-Lai.  I transformed it into the man with flaming hair.  But on the obverse side, I worked on the image of Chou En Lai.  And here it is, years later.
