Web content Upgrade 2020: Theory, Rilke & Trakl

Thanks to a working scholarship by the City of Vienna, we can push ahead with the expansion of the web portal, which has been planned for a long time. In a first step, technical issues will be addressed. Subsequently, we will work together with the leading Theorist Tom Konyves from Canada providing scientific theory on poetry film. Furthermore we are building our contents on Georg Trakl and Rainer Maria Rilke. Both poets were festival poets and a selected poem basis of the Art Visuals & Poetry poetry filming competitions. Stay tuned!

SCIENCE

"What is perhaps more important is the notion that videopoetry – rendering poetry as an object to be experienced through the medium of video – is in the process of re-defining poetry for future generations." Tom Konyves

We are mainly based in Vienna, where we already screen in the most renowned art house cinemas of the town. For example Stadtkino im Künstlerhaus is located beneath Musikverein in the heart of the old city center of Vienna. The screenings are organized in cooperation with Künstlerhaus Vienna, which is the oldest art fine association in Vienna. The Art Visuals & Poetry Film Festival on Tour programme was scheduled for January 7,2020 at Stadtkino im Künstlerhaus, Vienna. The USA programme of the festival will be repeated in autumn 2020 in Vienna.
