As writers, critics, poets, and artists, Maggie Nelson and Wayne Koestenbaum never shy away from pushing boundaries. They come together in conversation about the nature of grief, justice, and empathy.

MAGGIE NELSON is a poet, critic, and nonfiction author of several books, including The Argonauts, The Art of Cruelty: A Reckoning, Bluets, and Jane: A Murder. She teaches in the School of Critical Studies at CalArts and lives in Los Angeles, California.

WAYNE KOESTENBAUM has published seventeen books of poetry, criticism, and fiction, including The Pink Trance Notebooks, My 1980s & Other Essays, Hotel Theory, Best-Selling Jewish Porn Films, Andy Warhol, Humiliation, Jackie Under My Skin, and The Queen’s Throat (a National Book Critics Circle Award finalist). His eighteenth book, Notes on Glaze: 18 Photographic Investigations, will be published in April 2016. Koestenbaum’s first solo exhibition took place at White Columns gallery in New York in 2012; a survey of his paintings appeared at the University of Kentucky Art Museum in 2015. He has given piano performances at The Kitchen, REDCAT Gallery, Los Angeles County Museum of Art, and the Whitney Museum of American Art; and he has written the libretti for two operas—Michael Daugherty’s Jackie O, and Mohammed Fairouz’s Pierrot. Koestenbaum has taught at Yale (in the English department as well as in the School of Art’s painting department), and is a Distinguished Professor of English at the CUNY Graduate Center in New York City.
