More concretely, from the different
linguistic practices that populate the field of cultural production, I would like to focus on civic poetry, as both a practice
and a position aiming to expand and complexify the artistic engagement with the social, and the performativity of what we
could call bastard linguistic practices: practices which intrinsically bear a relationship of contamination and counter-filiation,
of dilatation and derivation, of threat and creation. What emerges here is the following proposition: if ways of speaking
are intricately and inescapably tied to ways of doing and ways of looking, could what circulates between and through this
triangulation be an arena where to assemble, probe, and rehearse possible contexts of enunciation?
The lecture
will particularly examine and ruminate those questions through the case studies of two recent projects I have convened: A
Convening of Civic Poets (October 5, 2023 – February 4, 2024) and Bastardie (June 6 – 30, 2024), both presented at KADIST
Paris.
