Bologna in Lettere 10th - Videopoetry

Bologna in Lettere - International Multidisciplinary festival - 10th (June 2021 - October 2022)
Bologna in Lettere is a literary-based Multidisciplinary Festival which for the past three years has obtained the status of internationality, proposing more than a hundred artists from about forty nations. It has reached its 10th edition, and on the occasion of this anniversary it will propose a special edition from June 2021 to October 2022 with many new features compared to the traditional structure. The Festival was born from a previous project called "Necessary Literature", active for almost 3 years, and which was aimed at eliminating territorial barriers by creating multimedia events throughout the national territory. The main idea was based on the principle of aggregation, a principle which was then taken to the extreme limits by Bologna in Lettere which in 9 editions involved more than 1500 authors from various backgrounds: poets, writers, critics, philosophers, video artists, musicians, performers, and also publishers, magazines, literary blogs and various online newspapers. Among other things, over the years it has produced monographic volumes dedicated to Emilio Villa, Pier Paolo Pasolini, Amelia Rosselli, Antonin Artaud. It includes in his staff: Enzo Campi (Artistic Director), Mario Sboarina, Enea Roversi, Martina Campi, Francesca Del Moro, Alessandro Brusa, Serenella Gatti Linares; and has a large group of collaborators (critics, jurors, translators, curators, etc.) including Daniela Rossi, Sonia Caporossi, Daniele Barbieri, Maria Korporal, Marisol Bohorquez Godoy, Vincenzo Bagnoli, Dimitri Ruggeri. The theme of the tenth anniversary is contained in the proposition: "BABEL states of alteration", because we will work mainly on languages ​​and on alteration states (not only linguistic, but also visual, auditory, mental, political, economic, etc.) with a substantial involvement of authors from all over the world and with the creation of a thematic multilingual anthology. Do not forget the eighth edition of the Bologna Literature Prize structured in 5 different sections, including the newly created section dedicated to video-poetry.
