Metaphor and Art, New Website





Metaphor and Art! The unveiling of a new website that has been some time in the planning. Mark G. Taber and I, Mark Staff Brandl, will be regularly posting about the various aspects of the topic(s) and hope to engender discussion on the accompanying facebook community page. We are both primarily active artists, but are additionally both researchers in metaphor theory. The first post we have up is simply our welcome greeting, with a bit about each of us. Please check it out, read our upcoming posts, articles and updates and then discuss with us.
