Paul Foster Johnson's Study in Pavilions and Safe Rooms is an exploration of public and private space at their extremes. Taking their titles from state-planned exhibition halls and panic rooms built for riding out the apocalypse, these poems stage collisions of aesthetics, politics, and history I artificial environments. In these phenomenological investigations, principles of order and constraint go awry under the sway of unruly and contradictory forces.
