Talk

Jorge Kanese PRY author, in conversation with Léonce W. Lupette DEU author, translator

Jorge Kanese (b. 1947 in Asunción) writes “porno-post-avant-garde” in the South-American tradition of the exuberant Neobarroco. His poems are a linguistic unleashing of celebration and releasing of all that is suppressed, a picaresque-performative rolling in the mud. This aggressive aesthetic of the ugly is a linguistic act against the logic of judgement and statement of political authorities – under the Stroessner dictatorship Kanese was imprisoned and tortured. Kanese amalgamates the languages of the “Triple Frontera” where Paraguay, Brazil and Argentina meet and transforms them into a wild “Spanurguese”.

Spanish-German interpreting will be available for this event.

The Poetry Talk: Jorge Kanese – Everything is misunderstanding is made possible with the kind support of ECHOO Konferenzdolmetschen.
