Pictures with words

From Jane Kent’s show “Between the Covers” at Burlington  (Vt.) City Arts through Jan. 18.

The gallery says her show features books, broadsheets, prints, and working drawings created by the artist in collaboration with six authors over the past 25 years. Here, Kent’s artist’s books are shown together with a selection of working drawings for the first time. Each project incorporates text written by a distinguished poet or writer: Privacy, 1999 (Richard Ford); The Orchid Thief Re-imagined, 2003 (Susan Orlean); Skating, 2011 (Richard Ford); Untitled, 2015 (Dorothea Grossman); The Flaneur Tends a Well-Liked Summer Cocktail, 2019 (Major Jackson); and Little Albert, 2023 (Joyce Carol Oates).
