Edmond Dune and Jean Vodaine.
Borders seemed not to exist for Jean Vodaine (1921-2006). Poet, painter, typographer, engraver, and publisher of Slovenian origin living in Moselle, he introduced American, Korean, and Malagasy poets to France and the Greater Region, notably through the journal Dire. Multilingual and committed to promoting regional poetry, he also collaborated with Luxembourgish authors, such as his friend Edmond Dune, with whom he founded three journals; with Anise Koltz, whose texts he translated and who invited him to the Journées de Mondorf; as well as Michel Raus.
Myriam Sunnen will discuss at the Librairie Autour du monde the friendships between Vodaine and Luxembourgish literary circles, as part of a dual exhibition at Centre culturel Puzzle in Thionville and Médiathèque Verlaine in Metz. This event is part of the Hommage à Jean Vodaine organized by Forum-IRTS de Lorraine with partners from Moselle and Luxembourg.
The conference will feature poetry readings and will be introduced by Jean-Luc Kaucic, president of the Association Jean Vodaine.
