At the heart of Double Moon is a collaboration involving the complex interplay between two spirited minds. Each of Margo Klass’s box constructions is an invitation to enter among objects in space and make of them what one might. Frank Soos has taken up that invitation. Margo’s constructions and Frank’s responses talk to each other, sometimes agreeably, sometimes ironically, sometimes earnestly, and sometimes flippantly. This collection stands as a representation of five years of their aesthetic sparring. Whoever picks up this book is invited to play along.

Illuminating five years of aesthetic sparring between two spirited minds, Double Moon is an artistic conversation between image and text. Klass uses found objects to create enigmatic, box constructions and Soos responds with insightful mini-essays that are sometimes ironic, sometimes whimsical, sometimes piercing. Klass’s compositions of objects—such as scissors, paper, twigs—lead Soos to intimate contemplations on subjects such as love, loss, and place. Complex and simple simultaneously, the work challenges all who allow these mysterious images and words to unfold.
The tension inherent in these pairings is what sets the book apart from others. Tension is achieved through varying degrees of incongruity. Some of these pairings have considerable ironic distance between them, others are quite close. But in all, there is a tension that bounces the viewer/reader back and forth. Sometimes philosophical, sometimes humorous, Double Moon draws the viewer/reader close, even within the box, into quiet contemplation.
Klass keeps studios in Fairbanks, Alaska and Corea, Maine. Her work has been exhibited around the country. She recently received the Rasmuson Foundation Artist Award (waiting on offical wording). She taught art and art history in the Washington, DC area for many years and has recently been Artist-in-Residence at Denali National Park in Alaska. Soos is the winner of the Flannery O'Connor Prize for Short Fiction and a National Endowment on the Arts Fellowship. Klass and Soos began their collaboration while holding fellowships at the Virginia Center for the Creative Arts.
