Poetry Reading and Music: Abdul Fattah Ismail

Poetry Reading and Music

Saturday, Sept. 28 at 4:40

Brooklyn-based spoken-word artist Abdul Fattah Ismail makes his debut at the gallery with a late-day performance of readings accompanied by music. Fattah Ismail will present selections from Extended Syllables, his 2016 book of rock-and-soul poetry, along with new material. He will be accompanied by singer-songwriter Ra Le Bu on guitar. Together, they will fill the gallery with dazzling, yet urbane sounds that will surely bounce among the current exhibit of beautifully touching paintings by Amy Weil.
