Nothing Is for Everyone
A Deuteronomy Press publication, distributed by Ayin Press
A wise and energizing book of poems suffused with music, mysticism, tenderness, and wit.
Eden Pearlstein’s Nothing Is for Everyone is a manifesto of the unmanifest. Deeply, devotedly hybrid in influence and expression, this wild collection of poetry draws on rabbinic linguistics and kabbalistic meditation, free jazz and hip-hop, Marcel Duchamp and the Magid of Mezritch—all to reveal the permutational quality of language itself: its instability, resistance to containment, and divine fault lines. In these times when answers are plentiful and questions impoverished, Pearlstein’s insistence on the materiality of nothingness reveals that in fact nothing really matters.
Nothing Is for Everyone was published by Deuteronomy Press and is distributed by Ayin Press (via Publishers Group West).
In/Flux
In January 2020, painter Zahar Vaks and poet Eden Pearlstein co-curated a multi-medial art show for the Ortega y Gasset Projects gallery in Brooklyn, NY, called In/Flux: on influence, inspiration, transmission, and transformation.
In conjunction with the gallery show, a unique, full-color chapbook/catalogue was produced to poetically reflect on the central themes and questions posed by the curators throughout their process: What is the nature of influx? What does it mean to be in flux? And what do these concepts and processes have to do with our lived experience and creative practice?
The show featured diverse works from 9 different artists in multiple mediums, including painting, collage, poetry, sculpture, music, and video. The book features a selection of images from the show, a curatorial statement by Zahar Vaks, and a series of kabbalo-conceptual-art writings and permutational poems by Eden Pearlstein.
This limited edition first printing is creatively designed by Tom Haviv and Sam Fine.
Artists included in the show: Tannaz Farsi, Yevgeniy Fiks, Fox Hysen, Helina Metaferia, Walter Price, Ralph Pugay, Molly Zuckerman Hartung, Charlie Rauh, Eden Pearlstein.
