This flyer was mailed to Spatial Poem (1965–75) participants after the completion of the fourth event, probably sometime in 1972. It shows that Mieko Shiomi was at the time based in Osaka and that George Maciunas had committed to designing “special issues” of each event’s collected reports. One hundred sixty-seven visual artists, musicians, composers, dancers, poets, filmmakers, gallerists, and other interlocutors are named. By listing out the names of all Shiomi’s collaborators up to that point, the document served to reflect the artist’s expansive international network back to itself.
