about

Improvisations inspired by the "typestracts" of Dom Sylvester Houédard (1924-1992), a benedictine monk, theologian, and noted concrete poet.

An early mail art participant, Houédard (or dsh, as he signed his work) held correspondence with leading poets, artists, theologians and philosophers of the day, including Robert Graves, Edwin Morgan, Allen Ginsberg, William S. Burroughs, Jack Kerouac, Mark Boyle, John Blofeld, Michael Horovitz and Ian Hamilton Finlay, and his work was shown in galleries and museums all over the world. He gave up the art life and concentrated on his religious studies in the early 1970's when the monastery where he lived asked that he do something about all the "beatniks" knocking on their doors.
