Christy Sheffield Sanford Home Page
Moving visual poetry onto the web, Sanford may be the first completely mature web-specific visual poet. Work that has to be seen to be believed.

Strings
Dan Waber's playful series of Flash pieces about relationships.

Kaldron On-Line
New home for North America's longest running visual poetry magazine (fonded 1974). Presents the whole art, not just anthology concrete, and does so in more depth than any other site on the web. Not the best site if you want something quick and snappy, but can't be beat if you want to go beyond that.

Tom Phillips Home Page
Centering on A HUMUMENT, this site includes information about Phillips' projects and samples on new pages of his magnum opus.

Poesia Intersignos
Documentation of a visual poetry show curated by Philadelpho Menezes in Sao Paulo, Brasil, this site provides many examples from around the world. If you don't read Portuguese, don't let the opening screen scare you: the examples won't present problems.

Lettriste Pages
Main site on the web for this French visual poetry movement, censored out of standard Concrete anthologies. Among other distinctions, Lettrisme was the art form of the 1968 French Students' Movement that came close to bringing about a revolution. This site includes work by founder Isidore Isou, and members from succeding generations.

Graffiti: The Writing On The Wall
Index to scores of graffiti sites. One of the best sources for graffiti art is what the artists put on-line themselves.

Workshop with Hungarian Visual Poets
Poetry by Maria Hegedus, Tibor Papp, Gabor Toth and others, most publishing in Hungarian Workshop magazine, which helped keep a sense of community going, even when some of these poets lived in exile.

A Collective Effort of Australian Visual Poets
Visual poetry from thalia, Jas H,. Duke, Ruth Cowen, and other poets associated with Collective Effort Press.
