acoustic literature & vernissage

attention, attention! sfd-double feature!
sound poetry performance and exhibition opening!

dear friends of the vienna poetry school,

we cordially invite you to an evening that bundles sfd's range into two "events".
on wednesday, 14 may 2014 (7 p.m.). and this will happen:

"soundlines" - our series on acoustic poetry, curated by jürgen berlakovich and jörg piringer, presents the slovakian artist and author zuzana husárová. the transmedia-artist, who lives in bratislava, will present samples of her multilayered work in a mix between lecture and performance.

introduction: jörg piringer (event in english)

http://bodyliterature.com/2013/11/04/literary-electronica-an-interview-with-zuzana-husarova/

it is very fitting for our evening that zuzana husárová, in addition to her many other talents, is also a phantastic book designer,

because after "soundlines" we invite to the opening of our new exhibition - as follows:

"moby dick - filleted. a book-in-progress-project by harpune verlag"

founded in 2010 by sarah bogner and josef zekoff, harpune publishes exclusive artist's books in limited editions which combine literature and visual arts in a most beautiful way.

in addition to publications by hermann burger, schorsch kamerun, jonathan meese or elfie semotan, harpune also takes care of the phantastic far-reaching and long-term project "moby dick fillet", a new serial edition of herman melville's century novel. thereby, an artist illustrates each of the 137 chapters which are published as single "fillets" in a non-chronological order. up until now twenty such "bites" of moby dick have been published. if the current publishing frequency is kept, one can expect the last artistic fish finger to be published in eleven years and the "book" will be roughly two meters thick.
what we want to show is what already exists, how it all came about and what else will follow. we will talk about all this at our vernissage with sarah bogner and josef zekoff.
and christian rothmaler presents fillet nr. 17 'the ramadan' together with the sound installation 'whales sing satie' by fritz ostermayer and sarah bogner.

exhibition from 15 may to 14 november at vienna poetry school
