L'Affiche de Poésie 1990-2010: A Retrospective Publication
Éditions le bleu du ciel has published a new work titled 'L'affiche de poésie 1990-2010', which dives deep into the Affiche de poésie project that Didier Vergnaud started in 1990. This project, running for two decades, blended poetry with visual art through public posters, creating a dynamic interaction between images and words. The book features insights from critics like Jean-Michel Espitallier and Olivier Domerg, along with a complete set of the posters, authors’ testimonials, and a photo archive documenting twenty years of events and exhibitions. Vergnaud decided to conclude this journey, describing the project as a "field like a playground, but without rules or constraints," according to Joseph Mouton.
