Poetic radio from the Fondation Louis Vuitton

·
The Fondation Louis Vuitton celebrates contemporary poetry with RADIO, an original series of radio broadcasts. The first edition of this innovative initiative is scheduled for December 11-12, 2015.
Broadcasting live from the Auditorium of the Fondation Louis Vuitton, RADIO brings together publishers, art schools, research centers and creative talents from a variety of fields for an eclectic array of panel discussions, readings, concerts, interviews and documentaries to explore the possibilities offered by poetry. Musicians, artists and poets from around the world are invited to contribute to the project within the scope of 15 works commissioned for each session.
Four programs are scheduled for 2015-2016. The first takes place on Friday December 11 and Saturday December 12. The event will be broadcast uninterrupted for 24 hours, hosted by French sound poet and sculptor Anne-James Chaton, who originated the project.
The event will be broadcast live via the Fondation Louis Vuitton website and also available in podcast.
The next RADIO broadcasts in 2016 are scheduled for March 25-26, July 1-2 and October.
