Presentation
The research group Poció. Poesia i Educació, within the frame of the government sponsored project «Catalan Experimental Poetry between 1959 and 2004» (FFI2010-18880 under the programme FILO), is organizing the International Experimental Poetry Conference: Poetics, Critique and Reception, to be held at the MACBA (Contemporary Art Museum of Barcelona) on October 25th and 26th, 2012.
Theoretical debate about literature has not given much attention to these poetics, nor has been interested in analysing the most radical and innovative practices. However, current publishing, museographic and programming trends in Europe and the United States show that the interest in experimental poetry is growing, and the development of specific and efficient analytical tools is essential for understanding and explaining the contemporary world.
Therefore, we are setting out this international meeting of experts on the topic with two aims: to contribute towards the connection of the complex links developed by experimental poetry since the 60s, and to foster discussion on new critical discourses and analytical tools for this boundary art.
The objectives that we propose are:
1. Helping to build models of analysis appropriate to the diversity of formats used in experimental poetry.
2. Drawing a map of the different poetics linked to experimental poetry.
3. Styding the reception of this type of poetic expressions by the public and critics.
