Pluralism? (2)

“While Duncan welcomes all the difficulties and obscurities of modern art, he sees them as inextricably related to the pluralism of modern experience.”

“Duncan never wants us to forget that his brave and unconventional modernism is a product not of London or Paris but of Northern California…”

from his review in The New Republic of Robert Duncan’s The H.D. Book (University of California Press)

“I am and remain a pluralist.”

—Robert Duncan 
in a letter to Denise Levertov
