Slamming improvisations
April 23, 1 p.m. to 6 p.m.
Young Readers’ Section, Kapucínska 3
A slam performance for one spectator. Improvised poetry between two eyes has its power in contact between the artist and the viewer. This almost intimate space allows for a truly human contact from heart to heart, which is so necessary especially at this time. The spectator enters a dedicated area, in which only he and the slammer are located. Slammer intuitively improvises a very short text addressed to the unknown, creating a unique interaction based on feeling and judgement. Meetings take place by chance on the premises of the library
