Dopo i volumi dedicati a Los Angeles e San Francisco. Luigi Ballerini e Paul Vangelisti, in collaborazione con Gianluca Rizzo, proseguono nel loro percorso all’interno della nuova poesia americana, spostandosi questa volta sulla costa occidentale.
Dalla fine degli anni Cinquanta, i poeti newyorkesi ebbero il merito di emanciparsi dal dominio accademico. Frank O’Hara, John Ashbery, Barbara Guest, James Schuyler, Kenneth Koch, Paul Blackburn e Ted Berrigan furono le figure di maggior spicco in questa ventata di nuova poesia, avvenuta anche sotto la spinta dei pittori espressionisti astratti (come Pollock, Kline, Motherwell).
I poeti di New York seppero inoltre imporre il culto del localismo, in una città che fu anima e cuore di un movimento d’avanguardia di ampio respiro internazionale. Le poesie di questa raccolta non sono tuttavia la semplice testimonianza di un trasferimento di energie dall’Europa all’America, ma il segnale di un’incrollabile fiducia nel valore del livello poetico del linguaggio. Oltre agli autori già nominati, l’antologia propone altre figure di rilievo, come Gilbert Sorrentino, Anne Waldman, LeRoi Jones (Amiri Baraka) e Jackson Mac Low, molto vicino a John Cage. Un posto a parte è riservato agli eredi dei poeti oggettivisti (in particolare Louis Zukofski), a Charles Reznikoff e ai Language Poets. Nutrita, infine, la presenza di poeti delle ultime generazioni.

About the Bureau
The Poetic Research Bureau is a storefront library and adjoining pocket theater situated at 3706 San Fernando in Northeast Los Angeles. As an out-of-pocket California milk-crate boosterist enterprise, it serves as the irregular literary umbrella for projects such as Ara Shirinyan’s house of concept & constraint, Make Now Press; occasional poetry journal The Germ (’97-’04), edited by Andrew Maxwell and Macgregor Card; and art-lit mag Area Sneaks, edited by Rita Gonzalez and Joseph Mosconi.
As a literary service, the PRB attempts to cultivate composition, publication and distribution strategies that enlarge the public domain. It favors appropriations, impersonations, ‘compost’ poetries, belated conversations, unprintable jokes and doodles, ‘unoriginal’ literature, historical thefts and pastiche. The publication emphasis is on ephemeral works, short-run magazines and folios, short-lived reprints and excerpts in print-on-demand formats, and the occasional literary fetish objects of stupidly incomparable price and value.
The Bureau also hosts a reading series in its Luna Theatre, and invites writers whose work lacks the ‘commercial tendency’ while harboring the bright, high-minded intentions that often lead to broad panic, righteous perversions, improbable arguments, and the ill-served cul-de-sacs of genius. The series is programmed by the aforementioned Messrs Maxwell, Mosconi and Shirinyan. If you’re sympatico, passing through town, or need a megaphone, 60 seats and a black box, give us a write.

Negotiating the Social Bond of Poetics is a reading and critical workshop series organised around Lacan’s Seminar XVII: The Other Side of Psychoanalysis, and Seminar XX: On Feminine Sexuality, The Limits of Love and Knowledge. The series will run for the equivalent of one academic year, with one writer a month presenting a reading one evening and running a workshop, which will address the controlling themes, the following day.
The critical workshops will address the questions raised in the abstract below. Writers will talk about their own work and other works in relation to these questions. Participants are invited to read the texts listed at the end of the abstract and bring their own work or questions to add to the dialogue.
Series organized by Nancy Gillespie and Nikki Reimer, with Nancy acting as the point person. Nancy completed her PhD on Lacanian subjectivity and poetics at the University of Sussex UK in 2008. She has been a colleague of the London Society of the New Lacanian School of Psychoanalysis for six years, and will soon be pursuing her Lacanian training analysis in Paris. Nikki, a Vancouver-based poet, has been a member of KSW from 2005-2006 and 2009-present. Her first book is forthcoming from Frontenac House.
Steve McCaffery holds the David Gray Chair of Poetry and Letters SUNY Buffalo. He is one of the most widely respected Canadian experimental poets alive, with a career spanning back to the mid 1960s. His 25 or so books include the standard-setting concrete poem Carnival (1975), a two-volume selected works Seven Pages Missing (2000), the recent collection Slightly Left of Thinking (2008) and selections of essays such as Prior to Meaning: The Protosematic and Poetics (2001).
Negotiating the Social Bond of Poetics: Thematic Abstract
The theme of this series returns to and departs from Jacques Lacan’s theory of the Four Discourses in order to discuss the social bond of poetics. Lacan develops this theoretical frame in Seminar XVII: The Other Side of Psychoanalysis, and Seminar XX: On Feminine Sexuality, The Limits of Love and Knowledge, and some of the selected fragments from Television. He proposes that there are four fundamental discourses, or structures of discourse, that produce different social bonds for the subject. These discourses consist of the master’s discourse, the hysteric’s discourse, the university discourse, and the analyst’s discourse. While Lacan is concerned with the limitation of the master’s discourse and the university discourse, he sees the potential of transformation in the analyst’s discourse. Although he asserts that it is necessary to make an hysterization of discourse in the process of analysis—because this is the first step towards questioning the master’s discourse—he asserts that this discourse must then be shifted to the analyst’s discourse for Real change to occur. Seminar XVII, which took place in 1969, follows the student and social revolt of May 68, a historical moment in which Lacan was immersed. He is critical of revolutions that appear to simply question the master and the university, and as a consequence only reproduce a new master, without shifting social bonds, as he cynically suggests that the Parisian students of 68 were in danger of doing. However, we do find moments in Lacan’s seminars in which he suggests that a writer can hold a similar position as an analyst, and thus one would assume, also be able to shift these other discourses to enact some social change. Therefore, I am using this frame to ask questions, develop a dialogue, about poetics and social change. Can poetics operate like the analyst’s discourse to create a different social bond through language? Do poets intervene in these other discourses or intersect with them in subversive ways that shift discourse and social bonds? Is Lacan’s concept of the structure of the four discourses useful for us today, particularly as we head into financial cuts in the arts and academia that may limit interventions in hegemonic discourses? Or do we need to rethink what poetics and discourse are and reconsider how we engage with and disseminate them?
- Nancy Gillespie
A further description of Lacan’s four discourses will be available for workshop registrants.

Conceptualism and Craft _ with K. Silem Mohammad
Workshop
by Small Press Traffic
July 6-9, 2009 6:00pm - 9:00pm
California College of the Arts 1111 8th Street San Francisco, CA
email: smallpresstraffic [at] gmail [dot] com
$125 fee ($100 for students and SPT members)
This four-day workshop will begin by examining and rehearsing various techniques central to Conceptualist poetics, broadly considered so as to encompass appropriation, transcription, and other versions of what Kenneth Goldsmith has called “uncreative writing,” as well as the deliberately awkward and expressively debased gestures associated with Flarf. We will then look at these techniques in relation to older and more traditional notions of craft: can there be coherent criteria for craft-based evaluation of texts written using blankly conceptual or intentionally “bad” methods? Do any of the familiar aesthetic categories still apply, and if so, how?
*
K. Silem Mohammad is the author of three books of poetry: Breathalyzer (Edge Books, 2008), A Thousand Devils (Combo Books, 2004), and Deer Head Nation (Tougher Disguises, 2003). His work has been featured in numerous journals and anthologies, including The Best American Poetry 2004, Bay Poetics, and A Best of Fence, as well as the forthcoming Flarf: An Anthology of Flarf, which he is co-editing with Sharon Mesmer, Nada Gordon, and Gary Sullivan. With Anne Boyer, he edits the poetry magazine "Abraham Lincoln". He is Associate Professor of English and Writing at Southern Oregon University in Ashland.

I thought that, since I was able to secure the university venue, it would be great to invite my fluxfriends to contribute a fluxbox for Fluxhibition #3 and later I will combine the two bodies of box works for an additional exhibit later in 2009 or in 2010. So your Fluxbox contribution will get at least double exposure.

OMAGGIO A LOTTA POETICA
74 artisti e una rivista
dal 16 maggio al 30 settembre 2009
a cura di Melania Gazzotti e Nicole Zanoletti
Fondazione Berardelli
Via Milano 107
Brescia
inaugurazione: 16 maggio, h. 17:00
(fino al 30 settembre)
*
Dopo aver presentato le personali di Ugo Carrega, Pierre Garnier, Bernard Aubertin, Julien Blaine, Sarenco, Hans Clavin e Jean-François Bory, la Fondazione Berardelli inaugura il 16 maggio per la prima volta una mostra collettiva, con più di settanta artisti internazionali. Le opere esposte vogliono rendere omaggio alla rivista d’avanguardia Lotta Poetica, pubblicata negli anni settanta e ottanta, e sono eseguite dai numerosi collaboratori che hanno reso questa testata una delle più sperimentali e longeve nel panorama dell’esoeditoria europea. Sono stati così raccolti più di settecentocinquanta lavori spediti dagli artisti: collage, dattiloscritti, disegni e dipinti dei quali in mostra sarà presentata una selezione. Verranno esposti inoltre affianco alle opere i numeri più interessanti della rivista, di cui la Fondazione Berardelli possiede la raccolta completa.
Hanno partecipato all’operazione, vicina alla pratica artistica della mail-art, poeti visivi e concreti provenienti da tutto il mondo, tra i quali Fernando Andolcetti, Giovanni Fontana, Arrigo Lora Totino, Eugenio Miccini, Lamberto Pignotti, Sarenco (Italia), Heinz Gappmayr (Austria), Luc Fierens (Belgio), Julien Blaine, Jean-François Bory, Pierre Garnier (Francia), John Furnival, Hansjorg Mayer (Inghilterra), Hans Clavin (Olanda), J.M Calleja (Spagna), Ladislav Novak, Karel Trinkewitz, Jiri Valoch (Repubblica Ceca), Alain Arias-Misson (Usa), Edgardo A. Vigo (Argentina), Paulo Bruschky (Brasile), Takahashi Sohachiro, Hiroshi Tanabu (Giappone) etc..
Lotta Poetica viene pubblicata a partire dal giugno del 1971 fino al novembre del 1987. Nata da un’idea di Paul de Vree e Sarenco, viene da questi redatta nella sua prima serie, per poi passare nella seconda unicamente sotto la direzione di Sarenco e nella terza e ultima da Eugenio Miccini e Sarenco. Vi collaborano numerosi artisti e poeti che operano a livello internazionale, pubblicando testi teorici, recensioni, interviste, immagini di opere e anche lavori appositamente pensati per la rivista.
L’intento, come si evince dal titolo stesso, è quello non solo di far conoscere le avanguardie artistiche del periodo ma anche di portare avanti una critica militante nei confronti dei meccanismi del mondo e del mercato dell’arte, letto all’interno dei grandi cambiamenti sociali e politici di quegli anni.
