Date: Friday, 27 of September 

Time: 18:00h – 21:00h

Probador de poesías is an independent project for expanded literature readings that proposes an experimental space for authors, language and sound artists to explore different possibilities of performing their work. It has been running since October 2022 and in its 15 editions there have been presentations from 90 poets from different backgrounds, some with renowned careers and some in the development of them. For the 16th edition we will hold the space for 4 poets and a folk musician. Three of the poets are coming to Berlin briefly so we are taking the chance to hear their resonance in our space. There are 3 venezuelan poets: Jesús Montoya, Geraldine Gutierrez-Wienken, Hensli Rahn Solorzano and the french-german poet Leonce W. Lupette. Also, the venezuelan musician Federico Beckhoff. For this evening, we will create an atmosphere of deep listening before the performances in order to attune the audience before the poetic immersion.
