Poet laureate and Nobel Prize winner Joseph Brodsky recites a poem.
From The United States of Poetry episode "Love and Sex."
Copyright Washington Square Arts, 1995.
I wish you were here, dear,
I wish you were here.
I wish you sat on the sofa
and I sat near.
The handkerchief could be yours,
the tear could be mine, chin bound.
Though it could be, of course,
the other way around.
I wish you were here, dear,
I wish you were here.
I wish we were in my car,
and you'd shift the gear.
We'd find ourselves elsewhere,
on an unknown shore.
Or else we'd repair
to where we've been before.
I wish you were here, dear,
I wish you were here.
I wish I knew no astronomy
when stars appear,
when the moon skims the water
that sighs and shifts in its slumber.
I wish it were still a quarter
to dial your number.
I wish you were here, dear,
in this hemisphere,
as I sit on the porch
sipping a beer.
It's evening; the sun is setting,
boys shout and gulls are crying.
What's the point of forgetting
if it's followed by dying?

Joseph Brodsky (1940-1996)
"There are no depths. Appearance is the summary of phenomena." -Joseph Brodsky [1]
Joseph Brodsky was born May 24, 1940 in Leningrad. His father was a photographer and his mother was an interpreter. Brodsky said he grew up surrounded by anti-semitism. [2] He worked a variety of jobs in varied industries including in a milling machine factory, in a morgue at a prison, in hospitals, and on geological expeditions. [3] He first became interested in poetry at 19 when he picked up a book of poems by Evgeny Abromovich Baratynsky. [4]
A newspaper in Leningrad labeled Brodsky's poetry "pornographic and anti-Soviet" in 1963. He was put in a mental institution and finally arrested for "parasitism" and put on trial. He was found guilty and sentenced to five years hard labor, however his sentence was shortened to eighteen months. [5]
He was expelled from the Soviet Union in 1972 and settled in Ann Arbor Michigan with the help of W. H. Auden. [6] He became a US citizen in 1977 and US poet laureate in 1991. He won the Nobel Prize in literature in 1987. [7]
Brodsky was reported in the New York Times to have been ill for many years before his death at 55 on January 28, 1996 from a heart attack. [8]

Brodsky was actively involved in the English translation of his poems. The video-translation stays close to the Russian text - where suitable Brodky's English translation is used - because first of all it tries to be faithful to the rhythm, cadence, of this impressive poem. The subtitling of a poem is different from transferring a poem from one language to another.
The poem (1971) has the following motto by C. Pavese:
"Verra la morte e avra i tuoi occhi." (Death will come and will have your eyes).
Brodsky: "Generally speaking, it (the poem) is about the fact that Christ is in some sense, a still life. ..... Christ is a thing and a man at the same time. That's what I meant. " (Cynthia L. Haven, 2002)
Iosif Aleksandrovich Brodsky (24 May 1940 - 28 January 1996) was a Russian poet and essayist. Born in Leningrad Brodsky ran afoul of Soviet authorities. For his "parasitism" Brodsky was sentenced to five years hard labor and served 18 months on a farm in the village of Norenskaya, in the Arctic Archangelsk region, three hundred and fifty miles from Leningrad. He was expelled from the Soviet Union in 1972, settling in America with the help of W. H. Auden and others. He taught thereafter at universities including those at Yale, Cambridge and Michigan. He was awarded the 1987 Nobel Prize in Literature "for an all-embracing authorship, imbued with clarity of thought and poetic intensity". In 1991 he was appointed United States Poet Laureate.

Отрывок из видеозаписи вечера Бродского в зале пало-альтовского Еврейского центра 30 октября 1992 года в Нью Йорке / An excerpt from video of Brodsky's evening in the hall of Jewish community in Palo Alto in New York City, October 30, 1992.
Иосиф Бродский — На независимость Украины
Дорогой Карл Двенадцатый, сражение под Полтавой,
слава Богу, проиграно. Как говорил картавый,
время покажет — кузькину мать, руины,
кости посмертной радости с привкусом Украины.
То не зелено-квитный, траченый изотопом,
— жовто-блакитный реет над Конотопом,
скроенный из холста: знать, припасла Канада -
даром, что без креста: но хохлам не надо.
Гой ты, рушник-карбованец, семечки в потной жмене!
Не нам, кацапам, их обвинять в измене.
Сами под образами семьдесят лет в Рязани
с залитыми глазами жили, как при Тарзане.
Скажем им, звонкой матерью паузы метя, строго:
скатертью вам, хохлы, и рушником дорога.
Ступайте от нас в жупане, не говоря в мундире,
по адресу на три буквы на все четыре
стороны. Пусть теперь в мазанке хором Гансы
с ляхами ставят вас на четыре кости, поганцы.
Как в петлю лезть, так сообща, сук выбирая в чаще,
а курицу из борща грызть в одиночку слаще?
Прощевайте, хохлы! Пожили вместе, хватит.
Плюнуть, что ли, в Днипро: может, он вспять покатит,
брезгуя гордо нами, как скорый, битком набитый
кожаными углами и вековой обидой.
Не поминайте лихом! Вашего неба, хлеба
нам — подавись мы жмыхом и потолком — не треба.
Нечего портить кровь, рвать на груди одежду.
Кончилась, знать, любовь, коли была промежду.
Что ковыряться зря в рваных корнях глаголом!
Вас родила земля: грунт, чернозем с подзолом.
Полно качать права, шить нам одно, другое.
Эта земля не дает вам, кавунам, покоя.
Ой-да левада-степь, краля, баштан, вареник.
Больше, поди, теряли: больше людей, чем денег.
Как-нибудь перебьемся. А что до слезы из глаза,
Нет на нее указа ждать до другого раза.
С Богом, орлы, казаки, гетманы, вертухаи!
Только когда придет и вам помирать, бугаи,
будете вы хрипеть, царапая край матраса,
строчки из Александра, а не брехню Тараса.
Joseph Brodsky — On Ukrainian Independence
Poetry was immortal, he argued: “That which is being created today in Russian or English, for example, secures the existence of these languages over the course of the next millennium.” But this wasn’t true, as Brodsky eventually acknowledged in a great and furious late poem, “On Ukrainian Independence,” in which he berated the independence-minded Ukrainians for casting aside the Russian tongue. “So go with God, you swift cossacks, you hetmans, you prison guards,” it says, and concludes:
Just remember, when it’s time for you, too, to die, you bravehearts,
as you scratch at your mattress and visibly suffer, you’ll forget
the flatus of Taras, and whisper the verses of Alexander.
Alexander Pushkin, that is. Despite itself, the poem is an anguished admission that a Russian state and Russian-speaking subjects are still vital to the project of Russian poetry.

Iosif Aleksandrovich Brodsky (Russian: Ио́сиф Алекса́ндрович Бро́дский, IPA: [ˈjɵsʲɪf ˈbrotskʲɪj] (
listen); 24 May 1940 – 28 January 1996), was a Russian poet and essayist.
In 1964, 23-year-old Brodsky was arrested and charged with the crime of "social parasitism" He was expelled from the Soviet Union in 1972 and settled in America with the help of W. H. Auden and other supporters. He taught thereafter at universities including those at Yale, Cambridge and Michigan.
Brodsky was awarded the 1987 Nobel Prize in Literature "for an all-embracing authorship, imbued with clarity of thought and poetic intensity". He was appointed American Poet Laureate in 1991.
Brodsky was born into a Jewish family in Leningrad. His father, Aleksandr Brodsky, was a professional photographer in the Soviet Navy and his mother, Maria Volpert Brodsky, was a professional interpreter whose work often helped to support the family. They lived in communal apartments, in poverty, marginalized by their Jewish status. In early childhood Brodsky survived the Siege of Leningrad where he and his parents nearly died of starvation; an aunt of his did die of hunger. He later suffered from various health problems caused by the siege. Brodsky commented that many of his teachers were anti-Semitic and that he felt like a dissident from an early age. He noted "I began to despise Lenin, even when I was in the first grade, not so much because of his political philosophy or practice ... but because of his omnipresent images."

"All that is necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing" - a quotation usually attributed to Edmund Burke who did say something very similar. Similar words are also used in the Russian film adaptation of "War and Peace" by Leo Tolstoy. There are several versions of this poem. About 30,000 people went missing in Bosnia during the 1992-95 war - this poem was written in 1992. Brodsky was an American of the Russian-Jewish origin. He won the Nobel Prize for literature in 1987.

Plot: Successful New York attorney Sam Leibowitz travels to the South in 1933 to defend nine young black men accused of raping two women on an Alabama freight train. In the spring of 1931 nine black hoboes were pulled off an Alabama freight train and arrested for allegedly raping two young white women in a gondola car. Ranging in ages from twelve to twenty years, they were quickly tried and sentenced to the electric chair. News of their convictions spread and the plight of the Scottsboro Boys became a 'cause celebre' that fueled the fire of socialism worldwide, forcing an appeal to the United States Supreme Court and resulting in new trials for all nine defendants. New Yorker Samuel Leibowitz, a savvy and self-assured defense lawyer with an impressive string of courtroom victories, agreed to represent the accused at their retrials in Decatur, Alabama. His journey into the Deep South symbolized the polarity of the times and set in motion a legal battle that ultimately changed the course of American jurisprudence. The Scottsboro case was a tragic chapter in American history and a story of epic injustice. From their arrest in 1931 to the release of the last Scottsboro defendant in 1950, the rights of nine young black men were violated. In this century in America, we face many of the same racial prejudices and human rights issues that existed almost seventy-five years ago. The names have changed, but the rhetoric that convicted the Scottsboro Nine remains virtually the same. Heavens Fall attempts to examine the cultural and political differences that divide us. It is my hope that by looking into the hearts and minds of the Scottsboro participants, black and white, North and South, powerful and impoverished, we may come to a better understanding of each other.
Keywords: based-on-true-story, independent-film, interracial-relationship, interracial-sexGenres: Crime, Drama,
Taglines: Let Justice Be Done. Though The Heavens May Fall.
Quotes:
Judge James Horton: Let justice be done though the heavens may fall.Judge James Horton: This defendant has a right to a fair and decent trail. Any man who attempts to take charge outside the law is unworthy of the protection of the State of Alabama and the citizenship which you enjoy. I have no patience with mob spirit. And if there are any meetings where such matters are discussed, any man attending such a meeting should be ashamed of themselves. Your very civilization depends on the carrying out of your laws in an orderly manner. Gentlemen, I hope we will have no more of any such activity.

Famous quotes by Joseph Brodsky:
"Racism? But isn't it only a form of misanthropy?"
"The surest defense against Evil is extreme individualism, originality of thinking, whimsicality, even / if you will / eccentricity. That is, something that can't be feigned, faked, imitated; something even a seasoned imposter couldn't be happy with."
"Life is a game with many rules but no referee. One learns how to play it more by watching it than by consulting any book, including the holy book. Small wonder, then, that so many play dirty, that so few win, that so many lose."
"I do not believe in political movements. I believe in personal movement, that movement of the soul when a man who looks at himself is so ashamed that he tries to make some sort of change - within himself, not on the outside."
"It is well to read everything of something, and something of everything."
"For a writer only one form of patriotism exists: his attitude toward language."
"If there is any substitute for love, it is memory"
"Life - the way it really is - is a battle not between Bad and Good but between Bad and Worse"
"No matter under what circumstances you leave it, home does not cease to be home. No matter how you lived there-well or poorly."
"What I like about cities is that everything is king size, the beauty and the ugliness."
"Bad literature is a form of treason."
"A language is a more ancient and inevitable thing than any state."
"Cherish your human connections: your relationships with friends and family."
"Who included me among the ranks of the human race?"
"For the poet the credo or doctrine is not the point of arrival but is, on the contrary, the point of departure for the metaphysical journey."
"Man is what he reads."
"The poetic notion of infinity is far greater than that which is sponsored by any creed."
"After all, it is hard to master both life and work equally well. So if you are bound to fake one of them, it had better be life."
"It would be enough for me to have the system of a jury of twelve versus the system of one judge as a basis for preferring the U.S. to the Soviet Union. I would prefer the country you can leave to the country you cannot."
"Snobbery? But it's only a form of despair."

Brodsky was actively involved in the English translation of his poems. The video-translation stays close to the Russian text - where suitable Brodky's English translation is used - because first of all it tries to be faithful to the rhythm, cadence, of this impressive poem. The subtitling of a poem is different from transferring a poem from one language to another. The poem (1971) has the followi -

"Bosnia Tune" by Joseph Brodsky (read by Tom O'Bedlam)
"All that is necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing" - a quotation usually attributed to Edmund Burke who did say something very similar. Similar words are also used in the Russian film adaptation of "War and Peace" by Leo Tolstoy. There are several versions of this poem. About 30,000 people went missing in Bosnia during the 1992-95 war - this poem was written in 1992. -

1 January 1965 BY Joseph Brodsky The Wise Men will unlearn your name. Above your head no star will flame. One weary sound will be the same— the hoarse roar of the gale. The shadows fall from your tired eyes as your lone bedside candle dies, for here the calendar breeds nights till stores of candles fail. What prompts this melancholy key? A long familiar melody. It sounds again. So let it be. Let i

I wish you were here, dear,
I wish you were here.
I wish you sat on the sofa
and I sat near.
The handkerchief could be yours,
the tear could be mine, chin bound.
Though it could be, of course,
the other way around.
I wish you were here, dear,
I wish you were here.
I wish we were in my car,
and you'd shift the gear.
We'd find ourselves elsewhere,
on an unknown shore.
Or else we'd repair
to where we've been before.
I wish you were here, dear,
I wish you were here.
I wish I knew no astronomy
when stars appear,
when the moon skims the water
that sighs and shifts in its slumber.
I wish it were still a quarter
to dial your number.
I wish you were here, dear,
in this hemisphere,
as I sit on the porch
sipping a beer.
It's evening; the sun is setting,
boys shout and gulls are crying.
What's the point of forgetting
if it's followed by dying?

Joseph Brodsky (1940-1996)
"There are no depths. Appearance is the summary of phenomena." -Joseph Brodsky [1]
Joseph Brodsky was born May 24, 1940 in Leningrad. His father was a photographer and his mother was an interpreter. Brodsky said he grew up surrounded by anti-semitism. [2] He worked a variety of jobs in varied industries including in a milling machine factory, in a morgue at a prison, in hospitals, and on geological expeditions. [3] He first became interested in poetry at 19 when he picked up a book of poems by Evgeny Abromovich Baratynsky. [4]
A newspaper in Leningrad labeled Brodsky's poetry "pornographic and anti-Soviet" in 1963. He was put in a mental institution and finally arrested for "parasitism" and put on trial. He was found guilty and sentenced to five years hard labor, however his sentence was shortened to eighteen months. [5]
He was expelled from the Soviet Union in 1972 and settled in Ann Arbor Michigan with the help of W. H. Auden. [6] He became a US citizen in 1977 and US poet laureate in 1991. He won the Nobel Prize in literature in 1987. [7]
Brodsky was reported in the New York Times to have been ill for many years before his death at 55 on January 28, 1996 from a heart attack. [8]

Brodsky was actively involved in the English translation of his poems. The video-translation stays close to the Russian text - where suitable Brodky's English translation is used - because first of all it tries to be faithful to the rhythm, cadence, of this impressive poem. The subtitling of a poem is different from transferring a poem from one language to another.
The poem (1971) has the following motto by C. Pavese:
"Verra la morte e avra i tuoi occhi." (Death will come and will have your eyes).
Brodsky: "Generally speaking, it (the poem) is about the fact that Christ is in some sense, a still life. ..... Christ is a thing and a man at the same time. That's what I meant. " (Cynthia L. Haven, 2002)
Iosif Aleksandrovich Brodsky (24 May 1940 - 28 January 1996) was a Russian poet and essayist. Born in Leningrad Brodsky ran afoul of Soviet authorities. For his "parasitism" Brodsky was sentenced to five years hard labor and served 18 months on a farm in the village of Norenskaya, in the Arctic Archangelsk region, three hundred and fifty miles from Leningrad. He was expelled from the Soviet Union in 1972, settling in America with the help of W. H. Auden and others. He taught thereafter at universities including those at Yale, Cambridge and Michigan. He was awarded the 1987 Nobel Prize in Literature "for an all-embracing authorship, imbued with clarity of thought and poetic intensity". In 1991 he was appointed United States Poet Laureate.

Iosif Aleksandrovich Brodsky (24 May 1940 - 28 January 1996) was a Russian poet and essayist. Born in Leningrad Brodsky ran afoul of Soviet authorities. For his "parasitism" Brodsky was sentenced to five years hard labor and served 18 months on a farm in the village of Norenskaya, in the Arctic Archangelsk region, three hundred and fifty miles from Leningrad. He was expelled from the Soviet Union in 1972, settling in America with the help of W. H. Auden and others. He taught thereafter at universities including those at Yale, Cambridge and Michigan. He was awarded the 1987 Nobel Prize in Literature "for an all-embracing authorship, imbued with clarity of thought and poetic intensity". In 1991 he was appointed United States Poet Laureate.

Иосиф Бродский — На независимость Украины
Дорогой Карл Двенадцатый, сражение под Полтавой,
слава Богу, проиграно. Как говорил картавый,
время покажет — кузькину мать, руины,
кости посмертной радости с привкусом Украины.
То не зелено-квитный, траченый изотопом,
— жовто-блакитный реет над Конотопом,
скроенный из холста: знать, припасла Канада -
даром, что без креста: но хохлам не надо.
Гой ты, рушник-карбованец, семечки в потной жмене!
Не нам, кацапам, их обвинять в измене.
Сами под образами семьдесят лет в Рязани
с залитыми глазами жили, как при Тарзане.
Скажем им, звонкой матерью паузы метя, строго:
скатертью вам, хохлы, и рушником дорога.
Ступайте от нас в жупане, не говоря в мундире,
по адресу на три буквы на все четыре
стороны. Пусть теперь в мазанке хором Гансы
с ляхами ставят вас на четыре кости, поганцы.
Как в петлю лезть, так сообща, сук выбирая в чаще,
а курицу из борща грызть в одиночку слаще?
Прощевайте, хохлы! Пожили вместе, хватит.
Плюнуть, что ли, в Днипро: может, он вспять покатит,
брезгуя гордо нами, как скорый, битком набитый
кожаными углами и вековой обидой.
Не поминайте лихом! Вашего неба, хлеба
нам — подавись мы жмыхом и потолком — не треба.
Нечего портить кровь, рвать на груди одежду.
Кончилась, знать, любовь, коли была промежду.
Что ковыряться зря в рваных корнях глаголом!
Вас родила земля: грунт, чернозем с подзолом.
Полно качать права, шить нам одно, другое.
Эта земля не дает вам, кавунам, покоя.
Ой-да левада-степь, краля, баштан, вареник.
Больше, поди, теряли: больше людей, чем денег.
Как-нибудь перебьемся. А что до слезы из глаза,
Нет на нее указа ждать до другого раза.
С Богом, орлы, казаки, гетманы, вертухаи!
Только когда придет и вам помирать, бугаи,
будете вы хрипеть, царапая край матраса,
строчки из Александра, а не брехню Тараса.
Joseph Brodsky — On Ukrainian Independence
Poetry was immortal, he argued: “That which is being created today in Russian or English, for example, secures the existence of these languages over the course of the next millennium.” But this wasn’t true, as Brodsky eventually acknowledged in a great and furious late poem, “On Ukrainian Independence,” in which he berated the independence-minded Ukrainians for casting aside the Russian tongue. “So go with God, you swift cossacks, you hetmans, you prison guards,” it says, and concludes:
Just remember, when it’s time for you, too, to die, you bravehearts,
as you scratch at your mattress and visibly suffer, you’ll forget
the flatus of Taras, and whisper the verses of Alexander.
Alexander Pushkin, that is. Despite itself, the poem is an anguished admission that a Russian state and Russian-speaking subjects are still vital to the project of Russian poetry.

"All that is necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing" - a quotation usually attributed to Edmund Burke who did say something very similar. Similar words are also used in the Russian film adaptation of "War and Peace" by Leo Tolstoy.
There are several versions of this poem.
About 30,000 people went missing in Bosnia during the 1992-95 war - this poem was written in 1992.
Brodsky was an American of the Russian-Jewish origin.
He won the Nobel Prize for literature in 1987.

Crush a roach or check your watch
As your hands adjust your tie

In the towns with funny names
Hit by bullets, caught in flames
By and large not knowing why
people die
In small places you don't know
Yet big for having no
Chance to scream or say good-bye
people die
People die as you elect
New apostles of neglect,
Self restraint, etc. whereby
people die
Too far off to practice love
For thy neighbour, brother, Slav
Where your cherubs dread to fly
people die
While the statues disagree
Cain's version, history
For its fuel tends to buy
those who die
As you watch the athletes score
Check your latest statement or
Sing your child a lullaby
people die
Time, whose sharp, bloodthirsty quill
Parts the killed from those who kill
Will pronounce the latter tribe
As your tribe

The Poem:
My dear Telemachus,
The Trojan War
is over now; I don't recall who won it.
The Greeks, no doubt, for only they would leave
so many dead so far from their own homeland.
But still, my homeward way has proved too long.
While we were wasting time there, old Poseidon,
it almost seems, stretched and extended space.
I don't know where I am or what this place
can be. It would appear some filthy island,
with bushes, buildings, and great grunting pigs.
A garden choked with weeds; some queen or other.
Grass and huge stones . . . Telemachus, my son!
To a wanderer the faces of all islands
resemble one another. And the mind
trips, numbering waves; eyes, sore from sea horizons,
run; and the flesh of water stuffs the ears.
I can't remember how the war came out;
even how old you are--I can't remember.
Grow up, then, my Telemachus, grow strong.
Only the gods know if we'll see each other
again. You've long since ceased to be that babe
before whom I reined in the plowing bullocks.
Had it not been for Palamedes' trick
we two would still be living in one household.
But maybe he was right; away from me
you are quite safe from all Oedipal passions,
and your dreams, my Telemachus, are blameless.

1 January 1965
BY Joseph Brodsky
The Wise Men will unlearn your name.
Above your head no star will flame.
One weary sound will be the same—
the hoarse roar of the gale.
The shadows fall from your tired eyes
as your lone bedside candle dies,
for here the calendar breeds nights
till stores of candles fail.
What prompts this melancholy key?
A long familiar melody.
It sounds again. So let it be.
Let it sound from this night.
Let it sound in my hour of death—
as gratefulness of eyes and lips
for that which sometimes makes us lift
our gaze to the far sky.
You glare in silence at the wall.
Your stocking gapes: no gifts at all.
It's clear that you are now too old
to trust in good Saint Nick;
that it's too late for miracles.
—But suddenly, lifting your eyes
to heaven's light, you realize:
your life is a sheer gift.

Above your head no star will flame.
One weary sound will be the same—
the hoarse roar of the gale.
The shadows fall from your tired eyes
as your lone bedside candle dies,
for here the calendar breeds nights
till stores of candles fail.
What prompts this melancholy key?
A long familiar melody.
It sounds again. So let it be.
Let it sound from this night.
Let it sound in my hour of death—
as gratefulness of eyes and lips
for that which sometimes makes us lift
our gaze to the far sky.
You glare in silence at the wall.
Your stocking gapes: no gifts at all.
It's clear that you are now too old
to trust in good Saint Nick;
that it's too late for miracles.
—But suddenly, lifting your eyes
to heaven's light, you realize:
your life is a sheer gift.

Leonid Lubianitsky is one of the leading contemporary photographers and the most recognized artists in the Russian cultural community in the USA and abroad.
A third generation photographer, he was born in Leningrad in 1938, and started to take pictures learning from his father at the age of six. At the age of seventeen, after his father's untimely death, he started to work at a commercial studio to support his family. Later, he was drafted to the Soviet Air Force as an aerial photographer. In 1960 he started his career as a filmmaker at the Leningrad Television Studio, producing documentaries on arts and programs for children, while continuing photography as fine art as well as taking assignments for various magazines and publishing houses.
Leonid Lubianitsky immigrated to the USA in 1972. His first job was as an assistant to Richard Avedon whom he considers his mentor. The second significant encounter was with the editorial director at Conde Nast Publications, Alexander Liberman, who gave him the opportunity to launch his own career shooting celebrities for the Vogue magazine section "People Are Talking About".
At the same time, his works were published at a number of magazines in the USA and abroad, such as New York Times Magazine, Time, Fortune, People, Horizon, Look, and others. He was receiving assignments for recording companies such as Arista, CBS, and Polydor, and advertising agencies. His photography for advertising campaign for US News and World Report brought him ANDY Award of the NY Advertising Club.
In his own words, a follower of Richard Avedon and Alexei Brodovich who defined American photography of the 20's century, Leonid Lubianitsky continues traditional approach using film and photographic paper. This exhibition presents portraits of Russian and American cultural icons such as Duke Ellington, Jack Lemon, Allen Ginsberg and Andrei Vosnesensky, Claeus Oldenberg, Peter Sellars, Marina Vlady, Aaron Copland and others, which is a small fraction of his works, created in the USA in the years of 1970's and 1980's.
"In gracing the pages of practically every major publication in the country," wrote the Nobel Laureate poet, Joseph Brodsky, " the portrait photography of Leonid Lubianitsky reveals an amazing sensitivity and zest, while being a uniquely exhaustive record of the cultural icons of our times."
