Stefano Calligaro – Poetricks
Stefano Calligaro presents a selection of his ongoing work of literal 'poetical-tricks' consisting of modified words and common terms, silly but clever verbal glitches that challenge established social and cultural codes through visual simplicity and a precise but deliberate (mis)use of language. The series originated with the aim of becoming a 'visual ecology of signs and meanings', in contrast to the hyper-spectacle often seen in art and culture in general today. 'Poetricks' are simultaneously artworks, minimal poems, and tools the artist uses to question and redefine the essence, meaning, and boundaries of art, language, and poetry.
208 pages, 9 x 13cm, softcover, Edition Taube (Munich / Zurich).
