Reading: Karl Holmqvist

June 24, 2015, 7 - 8:30 pm
Jackman Hall, Art Gallery of Ontario

Swedish-born, Berlin-based artist Karl Holmqvist uses a wide range of formats—poetry readings, installation and sculpture—to explore the qualities of language.  Investigating the transformative potentials of language, Holmqvist believes in the act of listening as a counter balance to the more isolating and authoritative qualities of the written word.  Holmqvist will be reading new and recent work.
