Correspondence Green-Blue

"Color and shape are the converging planes which form the fulcrum over which Smith see-saws his space. They form the language of which he is a master. Color and shape are his domain; the crossbars of his scope; his words. With them he writes poetry; poems which magnificently sweep their time and space into a single gesture."
Addison Parks, "Life Line, Leon Polk Smith," Arts Magazine 60, no. 6 (February 1986): 26.
