The exhibition w ill draw upon the extensive array of notebooks\, diaries\, manuscripts\, p hotos\, and other items from the Allen Ginsberg Papers\, a collection acqu ired by the Department of Special Collections at Stanford in 1995.\n\nAlle n Ginsberg’s poem “Howl for Carl Solomon” launched the Beat Generati on to fame and notoriety upon its publication in Howl and Other Poems by C ity Lights Books in 1956. Following an infamous obscenity trial in San Fra ncisco\, Ginsberg embraced his role as a free speech advocate and deftly m anaged his newfound media celebrity. An out gay man over a decade before S tonewall and a public advocate for drug experimentation\, he became a spok esperson for rebellion against the conformity of the postwar Eisenhower er a. Ginsberg also assiduously promoted the work of his fellow writers\, sho pping their work to mainstream and underground publishers\, defending them from censorship\, and bolstering the appeal and notoriety of the Beat Gen eration. In the 1960s\, Ginsberg transformed himself into an irreverent gu ru to the youth counterculture\, appearing at many of the decade’s semin al events\, including the Human Be-In\, held in San Francisco’s Golden G ate Park in January of 1967\, a prelude to the Summer of Love. During this time\, he also became a prominent public figure for the antiwar movement\ , participating in protests in the Bay Area and at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago.\n\nAs a young man\, Ginsberg experienced a series of mystical visions that impressed upon him the vast\, eternal nature of h uman consciousness. To rekindle these visions\, he experimented with drugs as a means of expanding consciousness and explored Eastern religion as a way of attaining enlightenment. A seeker for much of his life\, Ginsberg a lso traveled the world for poetry readings\, concerts\, and lectures\, cha mpioning the nonconformity and poetic exuberance of the American undergrou nd. These travels profoundly shaped Ginsberg’s poetry and built an inter national audience for his work and that of his fellow Beat writers.\n\nThi s exhibition is curated by Rebecca Wingfield\, Curator of American and Bri tish Literature\, Humanities Resource Group\, Stanford University Librarie s.

In the 1960s\, Ginsberg transformed himself into an irreverent gu ru to the youth counterculture\, appearing at many of the decade’s semin al events\, including the Human Be-In\, held in San Francisco’s Golden G ate Park in January of 1967\, a prelude to the Summer of Love. During this time\, he also became a prominent public figure for the antiwar movement\ , participating in protests in the Bay Area and at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago.\n\nAs a young man\, Ginsberg experienced a series of mystical visions that impressed upon him the vast\, eternal nature of h uman consciousness. To rekindle these visions\, he experimented with drugs as a means of expanding consciousness and explored Eastern religion as a way of attaining enlightenment. A seeker for much of his life\, Ginsberg a lso traveled the world for poetry readings\, concerts\, and lectures\, cha mpioning the nonconformity and poetic exuberance of the American undergrou nd. These travels profoundly shaped Ginsberg’s poetry and built an inter national audience for his work and that of his fellow Beat writers.\n\nThi s exhibition is curated by Rebecca Wingfield\, Curator of American and Bri tish Literature\, Humanities Resource Group\, Stanford University Librarie s. Produced and designed by Deardra Fuzzell\, with assistance from Elizabe th Fischbach\, Kylee Diedrich\, and Pasha Tope.\n\nGinsberg at 100: Select ions from the Allen Ginsberg Papers at Stanford will be open to the public .
