"The long-awaited book of this title by Neal Crosbie, featuring his key contributions over the years to the Buddhist magazine Tricycle, supplies the focus for a show of the collection’s original poems and koan drawings. The many images from the book displayed here are always teasingly profound, rooted in the ingenious burst-though beyond the predictable, “sane” and rational that animates Zen practice. Combining exquisitely detailed ink extravaganzas with memorable poems and playful provocations, Crosbie’s pen-work pulses with the inventiveness of a gleeful shaman."
