El final del milenio y los años que corren del nuevo se caracterizan, quizá por la proximidad que los preside, por ser tiempos confusos, de incertidumbre, de transición en definitiva. La importancia de los mass media y los avances tecnológicos (sobre todo internet) en el fluir de la vida cotidiana han provocado que el conocimiento sea más rápido pero también más efímero, y que la abundante información no nos deje depurar con nitidez los resultados poéticos de las últimas décadas porque son muchos y diversos. Los nuestros son tiempos de cultura del espectáculo, de cultura rápida, de imágenes sucesivas, de proyectos digitales a los que los recientes escritores no serán ajenos.

Graffuturism ist mittlerweile ein bekannter Begriff in der weltweiten Graffiti und Street-Art-Szene. Die Gruppe um den US-amerikanischen Graffitikünstler POESIA wurde im Februar 2010 in San Francisco gegründet und definiert sich über abstrakte Malereien mit der Spraydose, Mural Art oder Installationen wie beispielsweise die von Clemens Behr. "We use the word group as we don’t wish to define Graffuturism as a movement as we are a part of it. I think if it is defined as a movement it should come from outside sources. We leave it to others to label the semantics of what we are doing“ (POESIA) Der Name Graffuturism steht für die Weiterentwicklung von Aerosol und Graffiti Art, weg von Stylewriting und klassischen Graffiti der 70er und 80er Jahre der USA. Diese Gruppe von Graffitikünstlern geht einen eigenen Weg und hat noch viel vor. Bisher wurde das GRAFFUTURISM Projekt nur selten kompakt und in allen Facetten vorgestellt. Bisher im Rahmen von einigen wenigen Gruppenausstellungen. Im April 2013 hat die OPEN SPACE Galerie Paris 21 Künstler aus der Gruppe eingeladen um neue Arbeiten vorzustellen. "Its a surreal feeling sometimes when so many great artists you follow from afar are all together in one room appreciating each others work in real time. This is the real power of the group and what has been built. Graffuturism is an international phenomenon, one that has no home base or country. Because of this, these exhibitions are important. They allow us to meet each other shake hands, have a beer, and paint together. Each time we meet someone new, artists get to collaborate at times on walls. Things organically take shape. Paris was no exception, a trip filled with more unforgettable memories and another step on the road to our future." Wir haben die Gruppe in Paris besucht, mit Gilbert, Pener und dem Gründer Poesia kurz sprechen können. Samantha von der OPEN SPACE Galerie Paris stellt GRAFFUTURISM in unserer neuen 5 MINUTES Episode einleitend vor. Eine interessante Sicht auf die Dinge und mal wieder viel zu wenig Zeit um dieses schöne Projekt umfassend vorzustellen. Daher empfehlen wir einen Besuch der Website graffuturism.com.

The long and labyrinthine process that Latin America has undergone in its way towards democracy has been marked by the same confrontations and quarrels present throughout the Western intellectual history, which have sometimes been expressed as a fight between "ideas and emotions." In Latin America, this intellectual quarrel may be described in Julio Cortazar’s terms, as a struggle between "Baroque cronopios" versus "Gothic fames," or as a war between two cultures: "that of blood and that of ink," echoing the erosion of the great theories and traditional ideologies. Thus, in the wake of the political and cultural developments resulting from globalization, the Latin American democratic transitions, and the fall of the socialist bloc, we know that we are witnessing the end of an era, but we cannot yet define the new age. This article ponders, thus, what the revival of romantic views and emotions may mean at the beginning of the 21st century. Mexico, in particular, faces a major political and cultural challenge, resulting from the fact that the Mexican society is still immersed in the culture of the Revolution’s nationalism. The perennial struggle between ideas and emotions has become manifest again in the form of a dilemma between attaching to an identity in crisis and trying to reconstruct it, or rather looking ahead with the aim of creating a new democratic civic culture. [P1] Tras los desarrollos políticos y culturales derivados de la globalización, las transiciones democráticas en América Latina y la desaparición del bloque socialista, sabemos que estamos ante el fin de una época, pero aún no podemos definir los nuevos tiempos. A partir de ello, este artículo reflexiona sobre lo que puede significar el retorno de algunas visiones y emociones románticas a comienzos del siglo XXI. En particular, México tiene frente a sí un gran reto político y cultural, que parte del hecho de que su sociedad sigue inmersa en la cultura del nacionalismo revolucionario. Se presenta, así, como nueva expresión de esa perenne lucha entre ideas y emociones, la disyuntiva de dirigir los sentimientos a una identidad en crisis e intentar reconstruirla, o bien mirar hacia adelante para darle vida a una nueva cultura cívica democrática.

Emisión del programa Metrópolis titulado South Graff. Pintando la voz del barrio. El programa Metrópolis invita al experto e investigador en graffiti y arte urbano Fernando Figueroa a que seleccione una serie de proyectos en los que artistas procedentes del graffiti han dado voz a sus barrios, dignificando estos espacios desde la creatividad colectiva y desde la convivencia.

There is a need to create a documentation system adapted to facilitate the conservation and restoration of Street Art and Graffiti. Even though they are ephemeral manifestations of art, there have been some signs of the need for preservation mechanisms that would respect their own special features. For selected works we must establish a procedure that enables their preservation with the highest guarantee.

There is an abundance of books, magazines, films and internet-forums dedicated to graffiti. How this documentation has influenced and been a part of the graffiti subculture has not been studied much. Drawing on personal experiences, as a documentarian and publisher of graffiti media over 27 years, Malcolm Jacobson recollects how the positions of participant and observer incessantly have twisted around each other. This has been mediated through development in media technology as well as by the coming of age of graffiti and its practitioners.

Artes poéticas mexicana (de los Contemporáneos a la actualidad) nace de la necesidad de abordar un aspecto esencia a la hora de acercarnos a la poesía, el estudio, el análisis detallado de aquellos poemas en los que los escritores, en este caso mexcianos, intentan dilucidar y en ocasiones exponer su postura ante el hecho poeético, y ello desde una perspectiva que sin duda es fruto de toda una tradición pero a la que se acude para registrar una visión candente de la poesía. Este volumen parte de un estudio general, panorámico, en el que se analizan las diferentes propuestas metapoéticas desde los Contemporáneos hasta las últimas tendencias. A esta primera aportación le siguen estudios específicos de las artes poéticas de algunos poetas (Xavier Villaurrutia, Jorge Cuesta, Gilberto Owen, Octavio Paz, Efraín Huerta, Rosario Castellanos, Jaime Sabines, Gabriel Zaid, José Emilio Pacheco, Hormero Aridjis, Francisco Hernández, Alberto Blanco, Vicente Quirarte, Julián Herbert; y una reflexión sobre poesía mexicana reciente a partir del estudio de los metapoemas de algunas poetas), muestra de la buena salud de la que las artes poéticas siguen gozando en México. El lector podrá comprobar en estas páginas cómo con el paso de los años la concepción de lo poético ha ido variando y aportando nuevas formas de entender aquello que podríamos denominar la esencia de la poesía desde la misma poesía.

Asomarse a la escritura de Francisco Hernández (San Andrés de Tuxla, 1946) significa descubrir los infinitos matices del sufrimiento del artista en una gama tan amplia como la que va del escueto aforismo al poema en prosa. Desde su primer libro, aparecido hace ahora cuarenta años, el autor ha ido conformando el discurso poético más atormentado e inquietante de su generación. Y también uno de los más polifónicos.

Alanís Pulido, creador de Acción poética, lleva casi dos décadas pintando versos en las ciudades, democratizando la poesía y haciéndola llegar a un público mayor. Su movimiento cada vez cuenta con más adeptos y con más partidarios en diferentes lugares del mundo pero ha logrado mayor impacto gracias a las redes sociales. Aunque se trate de un movimiento centrado en la literatura, le atrae la idea de que algún día sus pintadas se conviertan en un atractivo turístico.

"Tyler Hoffman brings a fresh perspective to the subject of performance poetry, and this comes at an excellent time, when there is such a vast interest across the country and around the world in the performance of poetry. He makes important connections, explaining things in a manner that remains provocative, interesting, and accessible." ---Jay Parini, Middlebury College American Poetry in Performance: From Walt Whitman to Hip Hop is the first book to trace a comprehensive history of performance poetry in America, covering 150 years of literary history from Walt Whitman through the rap-meets-poetry scene. It reveals how the performance of poetry is bound up with the performance of identity and nationality in the modern period and carries its own shifting cultural politics. This book stands at the crossroads of the humanities and the social sciences; it is a book of literary and cultural criticism that deals squarely with issues of "performance," a concept that has attained great importance in the disciplines of anthropology and sociology and has generated its own distinct field of performance studies. American Poetry in Performance will be a meaningful contribution both to the field of American poetry studies and to the fields of cultural and performance studies, as it focuses on poetry that refuses the status of fixed aesthetic object and, in its variability, performs versions of race, class, gender, and sexuality both on and off the page. Relating the performance of poetry to shifting political and cultural ideologies in the United States, Hoffman argues that the vocal aspect of public poetry possesses (or has been imagined to possess) the ability to help construct both national and subaltern communities. American Poetry in Performance explores public poets' confrontations with emergent sound recording and communications technologies as those confrontations shape their mythologies of the spoken word and their corresponding notions about America and Americanness.

El cambio de siglo trajo consigo nuevas posibilidades de acercamiento a la escritura. Desde el traslado de la frontera entre plagio y creación, y la reapropiación y reescritura de textos ya existentes, hasta el amplio abanico de posibilidades desatado por el estallido de las tecnologías comunicativas, la escritura ha dejado de ser el espacio de introspección autoral privilegiado por el romanticismo para convertirse en una experiencia de la comunalidad contemporanea. Los ensayos que componen este volumen se sumergen en el panorama actual de las letras para trazar una geografía siempre móvil y cambiante de sus posibilidades estéticas, éticas y políticas; pues, a fin de cuentas, la escritura no es un monumento arcaico sino la suma de todas sus manifestaciones, viejas y nuevas, y de cada acercamiento, cada lectura y cada interpretación.

This is a book about the politics of alternative poetries and poetic practices, and the ways that experiments in poetry have provided 'spaces' within which radical or revolutionary perspectives can be developed. It explores social and cultural ideas that more normative mainstream cultural representations might seek to suppress. It demonstrates the ways that poems say things about cultural and social issues, and can say them in new and different ways. My work is conceptual, drawing on a variety of theoretical positions to help read poems that are resistant to giving up an easily digested meaning. It is also empirical, and begins with the material evidence of the poems, worrying away at individual words in detailed analyses of the semantic and syntactical relationships in the work. I try to show that any difficulty is worth the effort, and that poems that try to reflect the complexities of modern and contemporary culture and society are not only sometimes difficult to read, but they often have to be.

The Celebrated poet and author of Can Poetry Matter?offers another bold, insightful collection of essays on literature's changing place in contemporary culturePoetry is an art that preceded writing, and it will survive television and video games . . . The problem won't be finding an audience. The challenge will be writing well enough to deserve one. In Disappearing Ink, Dana Gioia stakes the claim for poetry's place amid American popular culture, where poetry in its latest oral forms -rap, slam, performance-is transforming the traditional literary culture of the printed page. But, as the seminal title essay asks, "What is a conscientious critic supposed to do with an Eminem or Jay-Z?" In a brilliant array of essays that test the pulse of traditional and contemporary poetry, Gioia ponders the future of the written word and how it might find its most relevant incarnation. With the clarity, wit, and feisty intelligence that made Can Poetry Matter? one of the most important and controversial books about literature and contemporary American society, Gioia again demonstrates his unique abilities of observation and uncanny prognostication to examine our complicated everyday relationship to art. Dana Gioia offers insightful essays on literature's changing place in contemporary culture in this new collection." "What happens to poetry in a culture that no longer depends on books? Dana Gioia dismisses the standard cliches about poetry's precarious place in a society transformed by electronic media. Looking at both the literary world and popular entertainment, Gioia's original title essay offers an account of how new technologies and innovative forms of oral poetry - rap, slam, spoken work, performance art - are revitalizing the art in unexpected ways.

Close Listening: Poetry and the Performed Word brings together seventeen essays, written especially for this volume, on poetry readings, the sound of poetry, and the visual performance of poetry. While the performance of poetry is as old as poetry itself, critical attention to modern and contemporary poetru performance has been negligible, despite the crucial importance of performance to the practice of the poetry of this century. This collection opens many new avenues for the critical discussion of the sound and performance of poetry. Paying special attention to innovative work. More important, the essays collected here offer original and wide –ranging elucidatiions of how twentieth-century poetry has been practiced as a performance art. Introduction.
