On the occasion of the exhibition Robert Rauschenberg: Among Friends, MoMA published Robert Rauschenberg: Thirty-Four Illustrations for Dante's Inferno, featuring newly commissioned works by acclaimed poets Kevin Young and Robin Coste Lewis that respond to Rauschenberg's celebrated series and offer a personal vision of hell. On September 12, Young and Coste Lewis will read a selection of these works in an evening of poetry and music curated by WQXR's Terrance McKnight and performed by a host of extraordinary invited guests. An exploration of Rauschenberg's conversation with Dante across the centuries, this special evening celebrates creativity in dialogue among friends.
