Dans le cadre de l’exposition UN TRI au [mac] de l’un des pionniers de la poésie action JULIEN BLAINE LE VENDREDI 10 JUILLET au [mac] À 20H30 69 AVENUE D'HAÏFA, 13008 MARSEILLE.
PERFORMANCE POÉSIE CONCERT JOHN GIORNO & JEAN-MARC MONTERA
Au milieu des années 1960, John GIORNO décide d’ouvrir la poésie à la culture de masse en exploitant les nouveaux moyens de communication : téléphone, télévision, disques... Il crée au tournant des années 1970 la maison de disque Giorno Poetry Systems qui édite de nombreux albums sur lesquels figurent les noms de William Burroughs, Allen Ginsberg, Brion Gysin, Patti Smith, Laurie Anderson. Infatigable pionnier de la poésie performance, John Giorno compose une poésie conçue pour la lecture publique et l’exercice scénique.
Parmi les plus actifs dans le champ des musiques improvisées, Jean-Marc MONTERA multiplie depuis les années 1970 les rencontres et les contacts avec d’autres univers artistiques jusqu’à rendre de plus en plus floue la « barrière » entre les genres. Utilisant tout le registre des cordes amplifiées et acoustiques, résonances, percussions, distorsions, extensions et détournements en tout genre, il évoque un monde sonore abstrait ainsi que le mécanisme quotidien de la ville et du travail.
