The Mac presents SPIN OFF: THE ANXIETY OF INFLUENCE
McKinney Avenue Contemporary

Dallas, TX
Ticket Price: free
Literary critic Harold Bloom coined the term "The Anxiety of Influence" to describe what cripples poets most from creating truly original work. We read a poem, feel inspired to write one of our own, and so poetic work will endlessly derivative. This idea distilled into its essence ignores a basic tenet of creativity; how we are all influenced by something - whether nature, social problems, personal history, values, other art forms, or more - but is that reason for "anxiety"? Join us for a rousing panel discussion about life, art, and the theoretical constructs that define us all. Moderated by Greg Thompson. For information: 214.953.1212 or www.the-mac.org
