Disguise the Limit: John Yau's Collaborations features numerous works that the prolific Chinese American poet and critic has created during the past five decades. These include paintings, mixed-media drawings, print portfolios, and artist's books. The result of friendships and shared sensibilities, these collaborations reveal Yau's embrace of both representation and abstraction as prompts for language generation. Offering nimble turns of phrase, Zen koans, road sign warnings, and fragmented and complete poems, he has been a curious and generous partner in producing these unique works with established and emerging artists including: Phil Allen, Bill Barrette, Jake Berthot, Norman Bluhm, Tom Burckhardt, Marsha Burns, Michael Burns, Squeak Carnwath, Aaron Cohick, Emergency Eyewash (Barry Schwabsky, Siv Støldal, Carol Szymanski), Tracy Featherstone, Enrique Figueredo, Pia Fries, Max Gimblett, Randy Hayes, Richard Hull, Bill Jensen, Justine Kurland, Judy Ledgerwood, Suzanne McClelland, Malcolm Morley, Use Sørensen Murdock, Martin Noel, Thomas Nozkowski, Thomas Offhaus, Ed Paschke, Norbert Prangenberg, Archie Rand, Sydney Jean Reisen, Peter Saul, Hanns Schimansky, Jenny Scobel, Pat Steir, Alison Elizabeth Taylor, Robert Therrien, Richard Tuttle, Claude Viallat, Chuck Webster, and Trevor Winkfield.
