Något om evenemanget:

OEI #92–93: Lettrist Corpus: The Complete Magazines (1946–2016)

This special issue, guest edited by writer, curator and sound artist Frédéric Acquaviva, is the very first comprehensive publication on Lettrist magazines. It describes, shows and contextualizes all issues of all 119 magazines created between 1946 and 2016 in, or in connection to, Lettrism – this vibrant and dynamic French avantgarde movement whose publishing adventures and efforts have, until OEI #92–93, been far too little known.

The event will also host a talk by Lytle Shaw, professor of English at New York University and a contributing editor for Cabinet magazine. His books include Frank O’Hara: The Poetics of Coterie, The Moiré Effect, Fieldworks: From Place to Site in Postwar Poetics, Narrowcast: Poetry and Audio Research, and New Grounds for Dutch Landscape. His museum catalog publications include essays on Robert Smithson, Gerard Byrne, Zoe Leonard and the Royal Art Lodge.

Ord&Bild 3-4 2021: Urban konst

A journal issue about urban art immediately raises questions. Which urbanity? What art? How does it relate to the institution and to contemporary art? The circumstance that this issue has been put together with Daniel Terres and Patrick Haggren, who work at the publicly funded organization “Urban Konst” at Göteborgs Konsthall, adds several more layers. Therefore, it is not so strange that the issue is both broad in range and rich with images.

Our shared thoughts are precisely this: To try and pinpoint and at the same time complicate it. To see what happens if the aesthetics of urban art are presented in an entirely different environment. The relationship between the art gallery, urban space and an adjacent cultural sphere, sometimes attributed to urban art, is discussed in the issue.

For the release, Isabel Löfgren will talk about collective strategies for care amongst artistically active transgender people in Brazil.
