This event has passed Get tickets
Event description
What is the role and relevance of literature, poetry, film, and philosophy today? How do word and image relate to each other? How are imagination, emotion, memory, beauty, and truth manifest in today’s world? We will be addressing these issues by reading short texts by, among others, Milan Kundera, Richard Flanagan, Virginia Woolf, Andrey Tarkovsky, Christa Wolf, Paul Celan, Ingeborg Bachmann. In addition, we will also show and discuss clips of movies, especially by Andrey Tarkovsky. This salon is open enough to accommodate impromptu readings and presentations of one’s own creative work.
