Still Life, by Giorgio Morandi (Italy) 1956


Arranged Order
 
The table
Wears it all -
Contour, space, 
Dust, shape -
Like an amulet

life still rises

it’s
still life
alone

even if we don’t celebrate
or meet together anymore 
it’s still all right to share a drink
or talk with grandma at the home
suspended in a box
people softly chatting smiling
and strangers mingling virtually
our friends connecting through the phones
we press our face into the screens
zooming conversations

they wear the shock
they wear a mask
or not

still 
quiet
lonely

let’s celebrate what joy we can
before our time dissolves on earth
before our souls arrive with God 
let’s drink to fragrant memories
and vibrant hopeful days
don’t conjure thoughts of coffined graves
or moldy asiago cheese.
instead let’s shine the light of God
let’s storm in spite of Covid-fears
the gates of courage not defeat

in pixelated homes
and solitary prose
because

life
still
rises

Still Life

One stopper, three bottles.
Holding a six year Barbera
Or the blood of Christ?
 
You tell me, it depends 
If it’s the Sabbath
Or a day for sinners.
 
Seeing as how I can’t remember 
Which day turned over the 
Horizon, nor where I placed 
 
The two missing stoppers;
I assume it is a weekday
And I am late for work.

An Empty Life
 
There you are standing still waiting for guidance.
Unsure.
Unable to move-only to be seen.
The vessel of faith and hope so close.
Complete your destiny.
With the blessings of the world.
You may endure pain and judgment.
A star or a crucifix. 
All things are open.
All options possible.
We must choose.
We must choose well.
To caress with kindness this still and empty vessel.

Looking Hard at What You See

I am going to simplify my life,
wear muted clothes, brown skirts
and white shirts, sensible shoes
a gray hat.

Who wouldn’t want to be that
humble in harmony with those
leaning in to touch another 
quietly

and experience how supple
an edge can be. How shadow 
suggests the rounding out
of surface. 

To be both squared and solid
containing the salt of the earth.
and a vessel to keep oil ready
to pour.

I don’t need to stand out
in red heels or consider if purple 
earrings go with a pink
pencil skirt,

always the painted lady
running errands in bright sun.
I had my heyday, now
I must blend in

rest, welcome a diffused 
light, the illusion of space
with no need to move through it.
To be still,

allow dust to accumulate on lips.
permit myself to float free
of the shelf, the table and become
a pure geometry.

​Three Blocks and a Round
 
White of pitcher handle and a bottle beside balanced 
by rind of a round of cheese below
 
How do you achieve aesthetics in a row of four?      
By making it about the two
 
Rows  
 
By concentrating on the couple
the tension between the two 
 
Enough to spark the night with neon
over the colour of the beach where they always laid
 
Created three children 
possibility of a fourth just there off to the side
 
Waiting

Plainsong

I do not want to eat the artist's cheese.
I do not want to drink the artist's wine. 

I would consider accepting a glass 
of clear water from the copper pitcher

in the plain still life of the plain 
still room with its plain still table 

if I were allowed to return the pitcher to its 
perfect spot and if I were allowed to return 

to my place and watch quietly and learn 
how it is one moment eternally rests.

Still Life, Real City
 
Emptied of pride, 
Prosecco, and flowers,
pitchers, vases
tower over squat rectangles
leading to the round
piazza of perfection
hugging the horizon line
of still life, where table 
meets the wall.
In my mind, I have
trekked this path,
past the high and low
to that place of rotund
solace where lovers, 
freed from rigid lines
mingle, laugh, 
watch fountain, by day
grab a quick espresso, or
in pomeriggio, with appertivi
indulge in a Prosecco,
gifting flowers to fidanzati.

Still Life

The sky is beige and free of blandishments. 
Soon, I am off to the Muses --
his bottles and jug on a stage
arranged like tailors’ dummies. On a plaza 
in Ferrara — or maybe just a table --
I am seeing cheese and a tub of margarine.

Since lockdown, mystery exudes in rooms 
with no loving presence. Bare minimalism. 
I’ve tried hard, though I can’t stay here 
forever, off again to thoughts of futurism 
or long afternoons in front of a mirror:

pushing my lips against the true stillness, 
tilting the glass, seeing the floor slide away, 
praying for an escape to another dimension.

​be still 
 
be calm

escape
chit chat, politics,
long-distance travel, 
parties, anything modern,
glamour, wealth,
notoriety,
lust
 
think
simplicity, shape,
space, light, colour,
humble gradients of grey, 
shadows on white,
village ochres, 
browns
 
focus
on bottles, boxes
a dull jug, this room,
the pattern, order, the shift,
back and forth, up, left,
swivelling angles 
slightly
 
create
harmony in line, in rows,
in shade, tone, brushwork,
right now, with hands, eyes
and brain together, 
make art, be 
calm
 
be still

The Poverty of the Affluent
 
They will never know
the sponsors and investors
the buyers and admirers
that the purest lines contain the widest worlds
emotions fathoms deeper than their sparkling pools.
 
They will never feel the cool
of limewashed walls
in afternoon heat
the smell of new bread and ewe’s milk cheese
basil in pots on a sunny window sill
 
hear the peaceful drone of cicadas
above the poolside chatter
and the air conditioning.
They will never know what it is
to feel the pulse of the day in clay
 
the clean sharp folds of white linen
and the way the light falls
slantwise
beneath the half-closed shutter
across a floor pattered by a child’s bare feet.

The Pecorino in Still Life, 1956 responds to Giorgio Morandi’s Nudge

I’m khaki-topped again, almost camouflaged,
without even a hint of shine 
and now you shunt me off to the side 
behind this row of uneven 
boxes? For all to see? Forever? Really?

You know you could arrange me on a fancy porcelain platter
and slice me open to release a heady aroma?
Why not take a bite or two to show how irresistible I am?
But who’s going to discern that? 
It’s always just the same old muted palette – 
beige, grey, pale, powdery.

If only you’d wrap me in parchment or crimson batik, 
drape cheese cloth round my curves begging to be torn off 
and place me downstage-centre, spot-lit.  
No? Even after all these hours of tweaking?

So here I sit, the epitome of Everyday Cheese Wheel
skulking among these familiar utensils
that no-one is ever going to oooh and aaah over.
Have you even forgotten that I’m edible?

The bottles never gurgle with Chianti or Lambrusco 
and I’ve just heard the white vase sigh.
It’s desperate for a peony or sunflower.
I dread to imagine what the boxes will have to say
when they emerge from their tight-lipped sulk.  

Don’t you reckon it’s the hod though, 
that could be redeemed? I do.
Snuggled close to the white vase,
its handle, like a cat’s tail curling 
round in ownership, makes it beam. 

And possibly those two black bottles 
angled together? With hats and coats on 
like an ageing couple, they’re heading out 
for a stroll round the block, leaving me 
on the shelf turning blue. 

May mould flourish in your walls with reckless 
abandon and may the stench of ammoniated cheese 
permeate your monastic quarantine forever.

Private Arts

Monaco springs with vibrant pulse,
spin low tax, grand-prix, roulette wheels,
sum wealth, full fashions for display.
Il Monaco, the monk, as known,
Bologna cell for eremite;
here brush the tranquil of still life,
years spanned as Studiorum stands.
Bottles and boxes, vases, jugs,
as dun baked village on the hill,
San Gimignano and the sky.
The monumental brought to ledge,
all labels gone, letters erased,
glare glass reflections glazed with matt.
Provincial tag, intended slur,
but early buds showed renaissance, 
light slowly passing into night,
serial time encapsulate.
So paint the seen and not the scene -
that is the space that needs the art -
as most find time for neither part.
Some private prayer externalised.

Luna Moth
 
Spare still life
 
shades of taupe grey
oil on canvas
 
body no longer that soft white colour
I wanted to give it a clear
 
night with a full moon
take it up a mountain close by
 
allow the same light 
 
to fall on its grave
pale bleached grass
 
distances increase
 
I place the moth in my hand
and tell it how sorry I am
 
her life is ending
shredded sea green wings 
 
frayed. Worked, muted
 
take it up there to be released.
 
The day after my sister died
in the time of blue plum.

Il Monaco (The Monk)
        
Afternoon light sifts through the bedroom
window facing the street Via Fondazza. 
It falls on bottles of wine & blocks of cheese
on the table. There’s nothing special about
them, just every-day non-descript things
from the kitchen. But in Bologna, the wine
and cheeses are exquisite. They will go with
the meal that his sisters (Anna, Dina and
Maria Teresa) are preparing: roast lamb and
un piatto di tagliatelle ready for the robust ragu,
a Bolognese sauce for the delicate egg-pasta.
The Parmigiano Reggiano, ready to be grated,
and an uncorked bottle of ruby red Barbera
is breathing in the rich air. Today he’s not a
                         recluse.
At the dinner table, Giorgio and his sisters
discuss art, Natura Morta (Still Life), and the
use of muted whites, grays, and tinges of colour
for jars, bottles and pitchers sitting silent and
humble, not boasting to be admired, somber
with a dull matte appearance—utterly without
pretension—arranged in deceptive simplicity,
yet, it took weeks of obsessive shuffling
to achieve the right composition. They talk
about Mussolini. It was a good thing for Italy
his execution eleven years earlier this month.
They raise their glasses, nod with approval.
A perfect balance is essential to enjoy life
more fully in art, in food, and even politics.

The Blocks and the Jug and the Bottles Dance

It had taken days to choose them.
The subtlety of their form.
Their tones, the textures.
How they would reflect the morning sun.

It had taken hours to arrange them.
The composition of the group.
In front, behind, alongside.
How they would complement each other.

It had taken minutes to draw them.
The finessing of the lines.
Horizon with perspective.
How their shapes etiolated my cartoon.

It took me aeons to paint them.
The colours, hues, shadows, the dark.
Took me forever to sell it.
Many flies have feathers out there.

Yet it took death for recognition.
Lung cancer won its battle. The blocks
and the jug and the bottles dance
beyond Bologna, beyond my tomb.

Still Life

We are lined up for our shapes
and colours. We weren’t asked, but told,
forced to stand here like women
punished for obeying what we are, for complicity
in madness, not capable of speech, though we say much.
We’re given chalk to eat. And dust. And one hour that goes on forever.
Stand there, he says, the man, who only
yesterday fed his argument with life
a few tubes of oil. Stand there and dance lonely
until the light changes.
We are tired of dancing and thirsty for yellow 
or even a touch of blue. 
Instead we're given stormlight, a dress
made of shadows, old blocks of stone. 
We pray the light changes quickly.
We pray it will be over soon.

Gardens

I pour two glasses of wine and 
wish I had made the time to stomp 
grapes with you. 

I nibble at herbs in olive oil and
remember when you begged me
to start a garden. 

The apartment was too small, I had said. 

Fresh rosemary now sprouts from 
the kitchen’s windowsill. I use it when 
following your recipes––you were a 
better chef than I will ever be.

     Sky Over Bologna

                                      "...if we could see all wavelengths simultaneously
                                          there would be so much light that we couldn't
                                          see anything.  Or rather we would see every-
                                          thing and nothing simultaneously.  The excess
                                          of light would leave everything in a senseless
                                          glow."

                                                       the poet contemplating light and physics

                                           "What interests me most is expressing what's in
                                             nature, in the visible world, that is."

                                                                                                Giorgio Morandi

         i.  Landscape

          In the brash collision of clouds
          over the Porta Ravegnana,
          the summer sky
                                       was ignited by sheet lightning...

          To Maria Theresa, Anna and Dina
           Morandi, sitting under awnings
           in the arcade
                                    as they waited for the rain to come,

           the sky's sharp contrast was unlike their brother,
           Giorgio, a quiet man, and shy, his art created
           with unexpressed emotion,
                                                            his paint pigment

            filled with so much light his Natura morta
            is more subtle than the storm, painted in colours
            of unbleached linen and silk,
                                                               a memory of textiles

            rationed when art was a component
            of fascist society, a strange lifeless bubble
            without tones of grey to white,
                                                                   waves cresting

             when storm threatened the Adriatic
             in the girls' memory of a trip made to the beaches
             before winter came.
                                                  Giorgio did not like travel,

              and escaped the heat in mountains south of Bologna
              until he returned to his studio on the Via Fondazza
              to work alone --  Il Monaco -- The Monk --
                                                                                             his metaphysical

              identity as he created empty city squares --
              Scuola Metafisica -- with their sense of stillness,
               the nostalgia of the infinite
                                                                hidden in light and shadow,

                mysterious, melancholy and poignant, perhaps,
                as the death of his younger brother, "architecturally"
                like the smaller medieval tower,
                                                                         Garisenda, adjacent

                to the Porta Ravegnana, and leaning closer, in time,
                to the taller tower, Asinelli, although both Towers were still
                and silent beyond the arcade,
                                                                     the only visible movement

                in the sky, the churning clouds out of reach
                and imagined in Giorgio Marandi's art, ghosts
                permeating his landscapes,
                                                                 dream-like and eerie.

                ii.  Still Life

                The main purpose of a telescope is to gather light, 
                 so the deliberate use of pale colours by Morandi
                 creates inward-looking paintings
                                                                            sensitive to the objects

                 portrayed, the artist's eye an objective lens
                 focused on an interior image, as when a bucket
                 of afternoon sun
                                               is emptied on a high, arched window

                  in Morandi's studio, and its profusion is steadied
                  by a pitcher, a bowl, three jars and three bricks
                  on an olive-grey shelf
                                                         braced by a wall, its paint colour

                   a pigment called pale dove's wing.  The pitcher
                   & the bowl are a signal of spiritual innocence,
                   the three bricks
                                                (one ecru, two skin-tone buff)

                   are made with colours of the Italian earth,
                   sun-dried symbols to build a visible definition
                   of house walls -- the outside --
                                                                             coming inside

                    where the pitcher, if filled with holy water,
                    could be poured in the bowl to baptize new life
                    with the colours of day and night,
                                                                              one jar in white,

                    and two in black, jars where colour and movement
                    are hidden in a potential created by the vessels
                    contained in the painting,
                                                                 the possiblity of jarring

                    in Morandi's Natura morta, the vases and bottles
                    created with an invisible essence, objects arranged
                    in a unifying atmospheric haze,
                                                                            light coming to life

                    on a winter night when the moon is metaphysical
                    and full, a ripe canvas in the sky over Bologna
                    where nature hides colour,
                                                                    like a hat, wearing a lunar halo.

                     Laurie Newendorp lives and writes in Houston.  Her book, When Dreams
                     Were Poems, 2020, has ekphrastic poems, one a still life with a bowl-shaped
                     soup tureen painted by an artist who served moon soup as a child, reading
                     fairy tales where pumpkins become coaches for Cinderella, and the household
                     cook makes pumpkin soup in the French countryside.  Listed with ten Ekphrastic
                     Fantasics, she finds art an inspiration where still life is animated by its artist.
