Details
'The Atlanta Odyssey' is Robert Barsky's new illustrated epic poem. Inspired Homer's Odyssey, this work is being created to reflect great epic quests from the past, and inspire future journeys through Atlanta and Fulton County.
The Atlanta Odyssey highlights the many layers of Atlanta’s history, and brings the reader along for the ride by adding photos and soundscapes of graffiti, artworks and landmarks recorded en route. This project features the poet "George", of 'Beltline Chronicles' fame, a poet who wanders around Atlanta and creates an epic story of his adventures along the way.
A Preview of the work-in-progress can be found at https://contours.pubpub.org/the-atlanta-odyssey.
Robert Barsky will be at Georgia Tech's Community Market this Wednesday, November 11th. This event is focused on a variety of artists, vintage curators and handmade artisans from around the Southeast! Participants are welcome to a free copy of the beautiful Beltline Chronicles in exchange for a 29$ donation to organizations who assist homeless people in Fulton County.
This project is sponsored by the Fulton County Board of Commissioners, Arts & Culture Program Area. Any revenues from this project are directed to assist homeless people in Fulton County.
