Join us for a conversation around a book of photography by Cole Barash and an essay by Eileen Myles on the occasion of their walks along the Cape Cod coastline.

The intricately bound collection provides a modern lens into the daily walks of Henry David Thoreau. Myles’ words and Barash’s images narrate the 32 miles of Cape Cod shoreline with focus and creative depth. 170 years after Thoreau did it and wrote about it and though like him they chronicle the flora fauna shoreline ocean people dogs ghosts thoughts feelings sand collapsing houses sculptures wonder pain sound color etc. Cole and Eileen's versions are something oblique to his and less linear, less singular, granular or more like a palimpsest and with depth like that, like sediment, dissembling, grains of sand, fog, photographic grain, grain from the Riso, bark fibers in the paper, trees already the paper, wood covers.

(they/them) is a poet, novelist and art journalist whose practice of vernacular first-person writing has has made them one of the most recognized writers of their 2 generation. Pathetic Literature, which they edited came out in Fall of 22. Their newest collection of poems, a “Working Life”, is out now. Their fiction includes Chelsea Girls (1994) which just won France’s Inrockuptibles Prize for best foreign novel, Cool for You (2000), Inferno (a poet’s novel) (2010) and Afterglow (2017). Writing on art was gathered in the volume The Importance of Being Iceland: Travel Essays in Art (2009). Books of poetry include Evolution (2018) and I Must Be Living Twice: New and Selected Poems 1975-2014. Their super-8 road film “The Trip” is on YouTube. They live in New York & in Marfa, TX.

is a multidisciplinary visual artist whose practice spans analog, digital and archival photography, sculpture, and film. His portraiture and still-life works are distinguished by an organic, spontaneous intimacy, capturing moments of quiet, yet profound, connection. Barash's artistic inquiry revolves around the interplay of color and composition between objects or temporal occurrences, often culminating in the creation of books or immersive installations. Drawing from a childhood immersed in natural landscapes, his work remains deeply influenced by nature—not only as a physical presence but as a dynamic force that shapes both form and perception.

Barash’s work has been exhibited globally, and his books are held in prominent public collections, including the Franklin Furnace Archive and the MoMA Manhattan Artists’ Books Collection. His photography has garnered widespread recognition, appearing in esteemed publications such as The New York Times, The Guardian, Rolling Stone, The New Yorker, and Vogue, among others.
