Launch of Pnina Granirer’s ‘Garden of Words’ at Jewish Book Festival

July 16, 2022 by by GVIP

Pnina Granirer launched her latest book, “Garden of Words,” at the Jewish Book Festival in Vancouver on February 9.

The poems in the book become illustrations for art created long before they were written, enriching the visual with the literary. The five chapters of short poems, some reminiscent of Haiku, deal with thoughts and feelings inspired by the simple reality of living and her wish “to plant a garden of words in my field of colours.”A visual artist for over 60 years, PNINA GRANIRER has exhibited her work nationally and internationally and may be found in numerous private, corporate and public collections. Her memoir Light Within the Shadows was launched at the 2017 JCC Jewish Book Festival.

The talk begins at the 8:50 mark in the video.
