Reading at the University of Pittsburgh, PA

Anne Waldman reading at the Pittsburgh Contemporary Writers Series

University of Pittsburgh, Frick Fine Arts Auditorium

Anne Waldman will be at the Frick Fine Arts Auditorium on Thursday, Oct. 10 at 830pm. Waldman’s poetry is recognized in the lineage of Whitman and Ginsberg, and in the Beat, New York School, and Black Mountain trajectories of the New American Poetry. Yet she remains a highly original “open field investigator” of consciousness, committed to the possibilities of radical shifts of language and states of mind to create new modal structures and montages of attention. Her work is energetic, passionate, panoramic, fierce at times. She is the author of more than 40 books, and is co-founder, with Allen Ginsberg of the celebrated Jack Kerouac School of Disembodied Poetics at Naropa University. We are delighted to have her here.

Anne Waldman Reads “Boulder Zodiac,” Innisfree, Boulder, CO

ANNE WALDMAN READS “BOULDER ZODIAC”

Please join us on August 18, 2013 at 11:30am, at Innisfree Coffee and Poetry House, for the first reading and filming of “Boulder Zodiac,” written by Anne Waldman.

Anne Waldman, one of the founders of the Jack Kerouac School at Naropa University, has written a commissioned love poem to Boulder. “Boulder Zodiac” will be divided into words and phrases and tattooed on the bodies of over 200 people who love Boulder.

The Boulder Tattoo Project, a large-scale community artwork in progress, is a collaboration between partners-in-art Kurt Gohde and Kremena Todorova, professors of art and English literature respectively, at Transylvania University in Lexington, Ky. It is the second of its kind in the nation. This will be the first and possibly the only opportunity to see Anne perform this poem live.
