Soho: an intimate and vital poetry debut by Richard Scott

In this intimate and vital debut, Richard Scott creates an uncompromising portrait of love and gay shame.

Examining how trauma becomes a part of the language we use, Scott takes us back to our roots: childhood incidents, the violence our scars betray, forgotten forebears and histories. The hungers of sexual encounters are underscored by the risks that threaten when we give ourselves to or accept another. But the poems celebrate joy and tenderness, too, as in a sequence re-imagining the love poetry of Verlaine.

The collection crescendos to Scott’s tour de force, ‘Oh My Soho!’, where a night stroll under the street lamps of Soho Square becomes a search for true lineage, a reclamation of stolen ancestors, hope for healing, and, above all, the finding of our truest selves.

Richard Scott grew up in London and studied at the Royal College of Music and at Goldsmiths College. He has been a winner of the Wasafiri New Writing Prize, a Jerwood/Arvon Poetry mentee, a member of the Aldeburgh 8 and an Open Spaces artist resident at Snape Maltings in Suffolk. His pamphlet Wound (Rialto) won the Michael Marks Poetry Award 2016 and his poem ‘crocodile’ won the 2017 Poetry London Competition.

Scott was born in London in 1981. His poems have appeared widely in magazines and anthologies including Poetry Review, Poetry London, Swimmers, The Poetry of Sex (Penguin) and Butt Magazine. He has been a winner of the Wasafiri New Writing Prize, a Jerwood/Arvon Poetry Mentee and a member of the Aldeburgh 8. His pamphlet Wound, published by Rialto, won the Michael Marks Poetry Award 2016. His debut collection is forthcoming from Faber & Faber in 2018.

Gladys Cromwell: Preparation

Preparation

A time will come when I shall breathe

New melodies to soothe and fold,
Like portions of a mellow sheath,

My sorrow. While my songs withhold
Their tones, I pause before the years;

I gaze on the grey world ; I strive
To clear the mist of doubting tears.

My songs, what music you ll derive
From silence in the time to come!

Girls are Coming Out of the Woods by Tishani Doshi

Tishani Doshi on Girls are Coming Out of the Woods: “I want to give this book to the people I love, and say to them, memorize this, never forget. – Jeet Thayil Each poem promises the sharpness of broken sea-shells, the smell of brine.

In this collection, Tishani Doshi inhabits the different homes: her childhood, the body, cities that were passed through, cycles of rain. There are poems of celebration and homages, as there are poems lamenting human cruelty and dispassion. This is also a book of travel and of homecoming, of familiar decay and startling, haunting discoveries of our oldest themes of love, grief, suffering and anger.”

Girls are coming out of the woods,
wrapped in cloaks and hoods,
carrying iron bars and candles
and a multitude of scars, collected
on acres of premature grass and city
buses, in temples and bars. Girls
are coming out of the woods
with panties tied around their lips,
making such a noise, it’s impossible
to hear. Is the world speaking too?

Tishani Doshi in Girls are Coming Out of the Woods (fragment)

Tishani Doshi is an award-winning poet and dancer of Welsh-Gujarati descent. She was born in Madras, India, in 1975. She received her masters in writing from the Johns Hopkins University in America and worked in London in advertising before returning to India in 2001 to work with the choreographer Chandralekha, with whom she performed on many international stages. An avid traveller, she has been trekking in the Ethiopian Bale Mountains, visited Antarctica with a group of high-school students, and documented the largest transvestite gathering in Koovakam. She has written about her travels in newspapers such as the Guardian, International Herald Tribune, The Hindu and the Financial Times. She won an Eric Gregory Award for her poetry in 2001. In 2006, she won the All-India Poetry Competition, and her debut collection, Countries of the Body (Aark Arts), won the Forward Prize for Best First Collection. Her first novel, The Pleasure Seekers (Bloomsbury, 2010), was longlisted for the Orange Prize and shortlisted for the Hindu Fiction Award, and has been translated into several languages. Her second poetry collection, Everything Begins Elsewhere, was published by Bloodaxe Books in 2012. Her third, Girls Are Coming Out of the Woods, is due from Bloodaxe in 2018. Tishani Doshi currently lives on a beach between two fishing villages in Tamil Nadu with her husband and three dogs, and sometimes moonlights as a dancer.

Ton van Reen: Het diepste blauw (067). Een roman als feuilleton

Mels heeft de vliegerhelm van John Wilkington gepikt uit het schuurtje waar grootvader Rudolf de dingen uit de oorlog bewaart. Hij heeft hem vastgesnoerd op zijn hoofd, een riem onder de kin. Hij ligt op het matras bij het uitkijkgat van de bunker, zijn houten machinegeweer in de aanslag.

Hij, de generaal van de Engelsen, weet dat de vijand aan komt sluipen. Hij ruikt hem. De bunker heeft de zwaarste aanvallen van de troepen van generaal Tijger overleefd.

Mels laat zich niet verrassen. Hij blijft wakker, ook al heeft hij in weken niet geslapen. Hij heeft leren slapen met de ogen open. Een paar ogenblikken, tussen de gevechten door.

Hij weet dat hij het misschien nog dagen moet uithouden, tegen een vijand die veel sterker is. De helden in de bunker zullen het achterliggende land en het dorp desnoods tot hun laatste druppel bloed verdedigen.

Hij hoort dat er een bootje nadert over de Wijer, de riemen in het water, maar vanachter de begroeiing ziet hij het bootje niet. Het riet ritselt.

Zwart haar met een strik komt even boven de pluimen uit. Het liefje van generaal Tijger. Mels legt aan. Maar net voordat hij de trekker over kan halen, springt er iemand op zijn rug.

`Geef je over, of ik keel je.’ Tijger zet hem het mes op de keel.

Lisa Gray-Garcia, aka Tiny: Criminal of Poverty. Growing Up Homeless in America

A daughter’s struggle to keep her family alive, through poverty, homelessness and incarceration

Eleven-year-old Lisa becomes her mother’s primary support when they face the prospect of homelessness. As Dee, a single mother, struggles with the demons of her own childhood of neglect and abuse, Lisa has to quickly assume the roles of an adult in an attempt to keep some stability in their lives.

Dee and Tiny” ultimately become underground celebrities in San Francisco, squatting in storefronts and performing the “art of homelessness.” Their story, filled with black humor and incisive analysis, illuminates the roots of poverty, the criminalization of poor families and their struggle for survival.

Criminal of Poverty lays bare the devastating effects of inheriting a life of poverty, as well the real redemption and power in finding your voice.” – Michelle Tea, author of Rose of No Man’s Land and Valencia

“Tiny’s indomitable spirit comes to life in her amazing story of poverty and homelessness, reaching into and teaching our hearts and minds. With her flawless descriptions of the pain of living in the margins of the richest country in the world, she opens up an important window onto a reality looked upon by many but truly seen by few, augmenting our capacity for empathy and action in an area so in need of social change. Bravo Tiny, for your gift to us all! Punto!!!” – Piri Thomas, author of Down These Mean Streets

Lisa Gray-Garcia  (www.tinygraygarcia.com)
is a journalist, poet and community activist. She is the founder of POOR magazine and the PoorNewsNetwork (PNN), a monthly radio broadcast and an online news service focused on issues of poverty and racism.

Paul Kempers: ‘Het gaat om heel eenvoudige dingen’. Jean Leering en de kunst

Amper dertig jaar was Jean Leering (1934-2005) toen hij benoemd werd tot directeur van het Van Abbemuseum. De opvolger van Edy de Wilde maakte van het Van Abbe een spraakmakend museum, waar de erfenis van Theo van Doesburg, László Moholy-Nagy en El Lissitzky werd verknoopt met de nieuwste kunst van de jaren zestig en zeventig.

Als eerste haalde Leering kunstenaars als Robert Morris, Donald Judd, Christo, Bruce Nauman en Joseph Beuys naar Nederland. Hij organiseerde exposities over minimal art, seriële kunst en lichtkunst die internationaal de aandacht trokken.

De bewonderde tentoonstellingmaker – opgeleid als bouwkundig ingenieur – schrok niet terug voor ferme uitspraken. Het museum? Dat was onderdeel van de preventieve geestelijke gezondheidszorg, een instrument voor emancipatie, een kritisch beeldinstituut dat kon bijdragen aan de vorming van de publieke opinie. Met geëngageerde tentoonstellingen als ‘De Straat’, ‘Cityplan Eindhoven’ en ‘Bouwen ’20-’40’ zou het van Abbe de toon zetten voor een generatie jonge curatoren in de eenentwintigste eeuw.

Leering was een activist van de geest wiens ideeën soms op felle tegenstand stuitten. Met zijn vaste vormgever Jan van Toorn zette hij vraagtekens bij de status van het museum als onbetwiste autoriteit. De vraagtekens werden uitroeptekens toen Leering ontslag nam om leiding te geven aan de nieuwe koers van het Tropenmuseum (1973-1975) in Amsterdam.

Tentoonstellingen, vond Leering, dienden inzicht te geven in hoe de wereld in elkaar stak. Hoe de wereld verkeerd in elkaar stak, soms. En wat daar aan gedaan kon worden. Want een museum dat zijn werkzaamheid alleen tot het netvlies wilde beperken, was een half museum.

Over hoe dat museum eruit had kunnen zien, gaat dit boek. Over de kijker tegenover het kunstwerk en de band tussen kunst en samenleving. Met Heidegger, Merleau-Ponty en Foucault waakzaam in de coulissen.

Chinese Authorities Razing Ai Weiwei’s Studio Part of Larger Attack on Artistic Expression

_____________________________________________________________________________

August 7, 2018
NEW YORK – The unannounced demolition of Chinese artist Ai Weiwei’s studio in Beijing is symptomatic of a larger attack on human rights and artistic expression in China, said PEN America today.

On August 6, Artist and activist Ai Weiwei announced on social media that authorities had demolished his Beijing artist studio. Ai stated that he had received no advance notice prior to the demolition. Although several of his works were damaged in the studio’s demolition, the artist explained that he is more preoccupied with the effects of China’s “urban development” projects on artists and migrant populations, saying: “Since last year, a policy was enacted to clear out migrant workers from Beijing . . . Those who do not belong to the establishment, including artists, are always the first to be discriminated against and sacrificed.”

Within the past few years, artist colonies including Songzhuang and Caochangdi—the latter an arts district that Ai helped develop—have been targeted for eviction and demolition. Artists have cited both runaway economic development and political disfavor as rationales for authorities’ hostile attitudes. More broadly, an urban development policy conceived last year to push migrant workers out of Beijing has empowered local authorities to take unannounced action to demolish property, a policy that has led to thousands of migrant workers losing their homes.

“Regardless of the government’s motives, the unannounced demolition of an artist’s studio is a demonstration of a lack of appreciation or even acknowledgment for the role of the artist in society,” said Julie Trébault, Director of PEN America’s Artists at Risk Connection. “Around the world, artist studios and communes are spaces to be cherished, not discarded.”

PEN America leads the Artists at Risk Connection (ARC), a program dedicated to assisting imperiled artists and strengthening the network of organizations that support them. If you or someone you know is an artist at risk, contact ARC here.

PEN America stands at the intersection of literature and human rights to protect open expression in the United States and worldwide. They champion the freedom to write, recognizing the power of the word to transform the world. Their mission is to unite writers and their allies to celebrate creative expression and defend the liberties that make it possible.

Ulrike Almut Sandig: Thick of It

The poems of Ulrike Almut Sandig are at once simple and fantastic.

This new collection finds her on her way to imaginary territories. Thick of It charts a journey through two hemispheres to “the center of the world” and navigates a “thicket” that is at once the world, the psyche, and language itself.

The poems explore an urgently urban reality, but that reality is interwoven with references to nightmares, the Bible, fairy tales, and nursery rhymes—all overlaid with a finely tuned longing for a disappearing world. The old names are forgotten, identities fall away; things disappear from the kitchen; everything is sliding away.

Powerful themes emerge, but always mapped onto the local, the fractured individual in “the thick of it” all. This is language at its most crafted and transformative, blisteringly contemporary, but with a kind of austerity, too.

By turns comic, ironic, skeptical, nostalgic, these poems are also profoundly musical, exploiting multiple meanings and stretching syntax, so that the audience is constantly kept guessing, surprised by the next turn in the line.

Sophie Nauleau: La Poésie à l’épreuve de soi

À la fois récit et manifeste, cet essai dédié à l’ardeur poétique risque à tout propos la première personne du singulier afin de témoigner de cet éblouissement que suscite la lecture d’un poème, et combien cet éblouissement peut perdurer.

Huit brefs chapitres entraînent le lecteur sur les versants de la poésie vécue, celle qui, comme le voulait Rimbaud, change bel et bien la vie. Car il s’agit de sortir des sentiers battus où l’on veut faire croire que les poètes ne sont que des rêveurs plus ou moins solitaires. Ici l’on ose de nouveaux chemins de traverse, toutes époques et contrées confondues, jusqu’à prouver que la poésie, mise à l’épreuve de soi, a pouvoir sur les êtres et sur leur destinée.

Ce récit, cet essai, ce manifeste, d’une tonique originalité quant à l’écriture et aux angles d’attaque, célèbre ainsi un engagement existentiel qui est la liberté même.

41ste editie Uitmarkt van 24 tot 26 augustus 2018 in Amsterdam

De Uitmarkt vindt evenals vorig jaar plaats rond het Oosterdok en het Marineterrein Amsterdam. Traditiegetrouw in het laatste weekend van augustus, dit jaar van vrijdag 24 tot en met zondag 26 augustus. Gedurende deze drie dagen zijn er op zo’n 25 podia circa 300 optredens te bewonderen, met op zondagavond de populaire Musical Sing a Long als afsluiter.


De Uitmarkt vormt de start van het culturele seizoen. Het laat bezoekers proeven van het diverse culturele aanbod dat Nederland te bieden heeft. Door het succes van de afgelopen editie heeft Stichting Uitmarkt ervoor gekozen om de Uitmarkt 2018 wederom op en rond het Oosterdok te laten plaatsvinden. Met toegang tot onder andere het Scheepvaartmuseum, NEMO Science Museum en het Marineterrein Amsterdam heeft deze locatie de bezoeker veel variatie te bieden.

Meer nog dan vorig jaar, door de uitbreiding met een extra stuk terrein. Het Scheepvaartmuseum vormt opnieuw het prachtige decor van het hoofdpodium.

‘Bezoekers hebben vorig jaar enthousiast gereageerd op de nieuwe locatie. Dit in combinatie met de goede infrastructurele voorzieningen, was voor ons reden genoeg om dit gebied opnieuw in te richten voor de 41 ste editie van de Uitmarkt’, zegt Jan de Rooij, voorzitter Stichting Uitmarkt.

Bezoekers van de Uitmarkt krijgen een gratis voorproefje van wat er in het seizoen 2018-2019 in de theaters, musea en concertzalen te beleven is. Artiesten vanuit het hele land en van verschillende genres zijn aanwezig. Naast de gevestigde orde is er ook volop ruimte voor nieuwkomers. Bijvoorbeeld in de Remix Area waar urban talent uit de verschillende Amsterdamse stadsdelen zich presenteren of de jonge theatermakers op het Fringe podium.

# Meer informatie over het programma op website www.uitmarkt.nl
