POETRY. ENTRANCES AND EXITS

In a conversation with Robert von Hallberg, Professor of Literature at Claremont McKenna College, Falkner will discuss the entrances into and exits from poetry, addressing such topics as the selection of style of language for specific contexts and how the language of poetry makes it possible to say more with less, and the various media outlets, for example film and the performing arts, that he uses to communicate, perform and transform his poetry.

The event will feature readings and several short poetry video clips by Gerhard Falkner.

Reception with refreshments to follow
