Why the WilloW

Volume V (2010)



[ click image above for more information ]

Currently finished with the third book (Volume V) of poetry, entitled Why the Willow. The previous Volumes I-IV were released last winter in the book Transcriptions of Time. Volumes I-II are contained in the book, Observing the Labyrinth from Heaven and were released in audio format in 2008 as Observing the Labyrinth from Heaven:Paris Recordings, available on MP3-DVD and MP3 Download. Last year, two full-vox collaborative albums were completed, one in Stuttgart and one in Berlin. This past May, Hollace wrote and performed narration for a new Spanish film, Ingrid, with music composed by Micka Luna. Later that May, a biographical ballet, INV3RSES, inspired by Ms. Metzger's life and story (and the poem "Last Five Dollars") was staged in Marseille under choreographer, Annabelle Lopez Ochoa.
Hollace has also accepted invitations for a few interesting guest stage and album appearances from late 2009-2010 in addition to a multi-installment collaborative art/photo Vernissage in October & December of 2009 (Paris).
The Transcriptions of Time audio book is also scheduled for release in mid-December 2009, in addition to many other projects to come. Stay tuned!

   About hollace m metzger Poetry

"Author, architect and artist Hollace M. Metzger was educated in the US, London and Venice, Italy, before settling into the New York and Paris arts scenes for the past eight years. Recently, she has been prolific in writing while performing in public salons throughout western Europe, the UK and New York City. In addition to writing, her poetic endeavors include collaborations with composers, choreographers and artists in the US, UK, Canada, France, Germany, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Belgium, Romania, Columbia, Mexico and the Netherlands.

Through words, Observing the Labyrinth from Heaven's renaissance-appeal unfolds, revealing itself mysteriously but with refreshing honesty. It will take its reader on a journey of mind, space and time travel from the past into the future, with transporting descriptions of place and the bitter-sweetness of urban life and love paired with childlike optimism and deep sensual undertones. Through the Labyrinth, you will find a glimpse into the library of the next generation of poets."

[PRESS KIT ]

"Auteure, architecte et artiste, Hollace M. Metzger, a grandi entre les Etats-Unis, Londres et Venise, avant de s'installer à New York où, durant ces huit dernières années, elle se fait une place dans le milieu artistique. Récemment, elle s'est consacrée à l'écriture, tout en se produisant sur les scènes d'Europe de l'Ouest, du Royaume-Uni et de New York. En parallèle à ses textes, ses expériences poétiques incluent des collaborations avec des compositeurs, des chorégraphes et des artistes venant des Etats-Unis, d'Angleterre, du Canada, de France, d'Allemagne, d'Espagne, du Portugal, d'Italie, de Belgique, de Roumanie et des Pays-Bas.

Au travers des mots, le charme Renaissance de Observing the Labyrinth from Heaven se dessine, se révélant mystérieusement, avec une rafraîchissante sincérité. Le recueil entraîne le lecteur pour un voyage dans la pensée, l'espace et le temps, du passé vers le futur, à travers de vives descriptions de lieux et le doux-amer de la vie urbaine et de l'amour, associés à un optimisme enfantin et à une profonde sensualité. A travers le Labyrinth, on pourra jeter un coup d'oeil à la bibliothèque de la prochaine génération de poètes."

(x.-s.) Ruin.

Reason divorced from reality. Death. Failure. Disaster yet not entirely without hope. Disruption. Idle chatter. Clever, eloquent and insolent person, impertinent yet with mirth. Spiritually, may herald the end of delusion.

I just kissed you.
Click here to kiss me back!

just a virtual kiss.

I still remember Paris, my darling, in the park, the lake was dappled by the sunset, a seductive, exteme, kiss and giddily I fall at your feet, worshipping your very essence. Later we awake after a night of stormy passion and my boat will slowly sink in the sea of your beauty.
