The Alice Notley Poets & Critics Symposium will be held on Thursday 21 and Friday 22 April 2022 at Université Gustave Eiffel.
What We Talk About When We Talk About The New York School
The inaugural symposium of the Network for New York School Studies (www.nnyss.org) will feature short talks, close-readings, interdisciplinary discussions, presentations of archival work, joint presentations, work-in-progress, artistic responses, and other conventional or unconventional responses to a variety of New York School poetry, art, and writing. Together, we will explore the place of New York School poetry, both in its emergent moment, and since:
- how did New York School poetry define itself in its moment?
- what has it come to mean?
- who are its artists and poets?
- what “schools” or movements has it influenced?
- how did / does it sit within broader New York / American / global writing and culture (including film, music, and art)?
- what can be said of 3rd and 4th generation New York School writing?
- what do we talk about, now, when we talk about the New York School?
The event will be informal, inclusive, conversational, interdisciplinary, and intersectional. It will conclude with a poetry reading in the evening (poets TBC).
This event is organized by Rona Cran (University of Birmingham) and Yasmine Shamma (University of Reading) and hosted by Olivier Brossard (Université Gustave Eiffel.)

[PUBL.] Vincent Broqua, Malgré la ligne droite – L’écriture américaine de Josef Albers, presses du réel, 2021.
From the Presses du Réel website :
Cette étude de Vincent Broqua, qui révèle la place essentielle de l’écriture dans le travail de Josef Albers (1888-1976) et montre combien son art des mots a interagi avec son art plastique, constitue une véritable introduction à l’œuvre d’un artiste, peintre et pédagogue parmi les plus importants du XXe siècle, tout autant qu’un essai sur les écrits d’artiste.Connu pour ses Hommages au carré, Josef Albers devient écrivain aux États-Unis, où il s’est exilé avec sa femme Anni Albers en 1933. En apprenant l’anglais, il invente un nouvel idiome qui fait dialoguer mots et images.
Comment ce maître du Bauhaus, enseignant au Black Mountain College, devient-il écrivain dans une langue étrangère ? Par quel moyen L’interaction des couleurs, ce livre au retentissement international, conduit-il à une expérience physique de la couleur par les mots ? Pourquoi la nouvelle forme de vers élaborée dans ce livre est-elle la somme de recherches à la fois typographiques et poétiques ? Quels liens construit-il avec la poésie concrète et la poésie américaine ?
Ces questions sont l’enjeu de ce livre, véritable introduction à l’œuvre de Josef Albers, tout autant qu’essai sur les écrits d’artiste.
