La géométrie qui module le vent, les saillies de lumière. Le soleil qui inscrit sa musique, dévoile son parchemin sur la pierre. Le soleil se fragmente dans la pierre et nous livre une partition, un chant, une géométrie céleste. Architecture solaire, hymne au soleil, livre de pierre où se lit le langage du soleil | Teo Hernández – excerpt from La Charité : le savoir, l’histoire, le passé, la pierre, l’architecture, part of Cinq films d'août, 1986, super8, distributed by LIGHT CONE, on show at until 4 September, in the framework of the exhibition Corpus Marseille.
Looking back on a deeply enriching month spent in the South of France, between Marseille and Arles. Grateful once again to the entire team at the Cipm | Centre international de poésie Marseille for kindly inviting me to speak about my critical essay on mineral matter, and for the opportunity to engage with such a thoughtful and passionate audience. The Cipm’s dedication to contemporary poetry–through its remarkable library and exhibitions–is truly inspiring.
Happy and honored that Devenir minéral by Giuliana Prucca, Position(s) by Antoine d’Agata, From Static Oblivion by Ion Grigorescu, and kamera cahier n°9 (dedicated to Peter Downsbrough and co-edited with ) are now available in free access at the CIPM Library, Centre de la Vieille Charité, Marseille.
It was also a joy–and quite moving–to reconnect with friends at the Rencontres d’Arles and FIDMarseille. Thank you .graziosi.x .hallard .artist for the conversations, and good energy throughout.
In the chaos of this world, the only true and meaningful forms of anarchy are poetry and friendship 🖤
