Dear Friends
The venue for the Agitprop Reading this Saturday, 2/7 at 7pm has
unexpectedly CHANGED. For this event only, the Agitprop Reading will
take place nearby at at ART Produce Gallery on 3139 University Ave,
on the corner of University and Herman, next to Cafe Carpe Diem.
We're still looking forward to a fabulous reading, and we hope you'll
join us!
---------
After a winter hiatus, the Agitprop reading series is back!
We hope you can join us this Saturday, February 7 for the next reading
at Agitprop Gallery (2837 University Ave in North Park, entrance on
Utah, a few blocks west of 30th Street), featuring VANESSA PLACE and
TERESA CARMODY. We often serve wine and snacks, and donations to the
gallery are always appreciated.
Vanessa Place is a writer and lawyer, and co-director of Les Figues
Press. She is the author of Dies: A Sentence (Les Figues Press), a
50,000-word, one-sentence prose poem; the post-conceptual novel La
Medusa (Fiction Collective 2), and, in collaboration with
appropriation poet Robert Fitterman, Notes on Conceptualisms (Ugly
Duckling Presse (2009). Place is also a regular contributor to X-TRA
Contemporary Art Quarterly, and is collaborating with Los Angeles
conceptual artist Stephanie Taylor on the film, “Murder Squaredance at
the Spiral Jetty.” Her nonfiction book, The Guilt Project: Rape and
Morality will be published by Other Press in 2010. Place is co-founder
of Les Figues Press, described by critic Terry Castle as “an elegant
vessel for experimental American writing of an extraordinarily assured
and ingenious sort.”
Teresa Carmody is the author of Requiem (Les Figues, 2005) and two
chapbooks: Eye Hole Adore (PS Book, 2008) and Your Spiritual Suit of
Armor by Katherine Anne by Teresa Carmody (Woodland Editions, 2008).
Other work has appeared in various publications, including emohippus
greeting card 1 & 2, Bombay Gin, Fold, Slope, American Book Review, LA
Weekly and Stolen Purse. She was one of the organizers of the original
Ladyfest in Olympia, Washington, and co-organizer (with Matias
Viegener and Christine Wertheim) of Feminaissance, a colloquium on
women, experiments and writing at the Los Angeles Museum of
Contemporary Art. She is cofounder and co-director (with Vanessa
Place) of Les Figues Press.
We hope to see you there and for all festivities afterward!
