Tate Liverpool: An Evening of Readings
Presented in our Keith Haring exhibition, next to Haring's enormous artwork, The Matrix 1983, enjoy an evening of poetry with Isabel Waidner, Jay G. Ying, Laurel Uziell, Nat Raha, and Niven Govinden and organised by Patrick Staff and Dagmawi Woubshet.
Through a range of readings of poetry, prose, and critical text, the evening will broadly explore Woubshet's concept of a 'poetics of compounding loss,' a vital condition of queer and trans expression wherein speech acts become a necessary vehicle of survival, and love and open grief may operate at the very center of art and protest.
The event is organised as part of Patrick Staff's residency, and supported by the Keith Haring Foundation.
Royal Albert Dock Liverpool, Liverpool L3 4BB
7 - 9pm
£5/ Free to Students.
