| This article delves into the dynamic interplay between visual arts and English poetry over the past fifty years, with a particular focus on the period from 1970 to 2020. The study examines how painting and sculpture have significantly influenced the themes, imagery, and stylistic elements of contemporary English poetry. By analyzing selected works of prominent poets such as John Ashbery, Jorie Graham, and Carol Ann Duffy, alongside corresponding visual artworks, the research elucidates the extent and nature of this cross-disciplinary interaction. It highlights the thematic depth, vivid imagery, and innovative stylistic techniques poets have adopted from visual arts, offering new insights into the evolution of poetic expression. This interdisciplinary exploration not only enriches our understanding of modern literary and artistic practices but also underscores the transformative impact of visual arts on the landscape of contemporary poetry. Through a detailed examination of specific poems and artworks, the article provides a comprehensive analysis of how visual arts have shaped and continue to shape the poetic form, contributing to the broader discourse on the interrelation of art and literature.
