Saturday 10 December at 6 pm. Tristan Blumel , born in 1989 in Haute-Savoie, lives and works in Nice after extensive wanderings. Engaged in creation that ranges from paper games to oral performance, he works tirelessly to give poetry a greater presence in the contemporary space. His two collections Avant Musique and Le Lampadaire et la Baignoire are published by Abordo. He is a member of the Nice artistic collective PALAM, whose creative core is nature hiking, as well as of the contemporary poetry collective La Dernière Vague. Tristan Blumel, Avant Musique Contemporary poetry collection Abordo Editions 90 pages, 13.5 x 20 cm €15.00 We believe in a present-day poetry with a strong active principle, one that breathes its energy straight into things rather than folding in on itself, in a parade of automatons, a dull boum-tchak-boum spirit: one must act with and against language, confront the hubbub, plunge into the intensity of the ah! We think that, through the salutary chaos it produces, poetry is the communication tool of a revolutionary present. EXCERPT « There, the fire, a meaning, something to fill it, there, pieces of broken tiles, old magazines, a bench to sit on, there, the weather, the walkie-talkies, signs, the exploration, there. »
