Despoesia

"Collection of poems in two parts: 'Expoemas' (1980-84) and 'Intraduções' (1979-93). In a 'desfacio,' Campos claims he had not published for 15 years, the last work being an anthology of 30 years of poetry, Viva vaia (see HLAS 52:4683). 'Expoemas' has 13 compositions with richly colored illustrations silkscreened by Omar Guedes to a more rustic homemade 'minicontralivropoema,' xerographically published in 1990 ('Não'). In this period, he experimented with various media formats: videotext, holograms, neon, laser, clip-poems, computer graphics - everything but a book. The second part, 'Intraduções', has 50 poems"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
