Poetic actions and performances
The sound-related activities organised alongside the exhibition Gil J Wolman. I am immortal and alive kicked off with an audition of Wolman’s “megapneumes” in the exhibition galleries. They continue with the Ràdio Web MACBA Program «Wolman, Lettrism, Sound Poetry and Beyond», led by Frédéric Acquaviva, who positions Wolman’s poetic work in the context of French poetry from the fifties to the seventies. The third activity in the series is an encounter between two French Lettrists from the generation after Wolman, François Poyet and Gérard-Philippe Broutin, who don’t usually participate in public activities, and representatives from the local poetry and arts scene. Between different performances the lights will be turned off so that the audience can listen to spatializations of Lettrist poetry. After Wolman will also be the first concert in the LEM Autumn program.
Curators: Frédéric Acquaviva and Eduard Escoffet
