Poetry, Moving Images Come After
Has the Age of Poetry Passed? Lessing’s Laocoön proposed the boundaries between poetry and painting. Modern art ventured into uncharted territories through poetry, while Adorno posed the unsettling question: “Can one write poetry after Auschwitz?” As a medium, poetry has consistently written its history at the intersection of form and ethics. But how does the voice of poetry resonate today? This ancient medium seems to have retreated amidst the tides of popular culture、. Which medium now stands as the most vibrant? The answer might lie with poetry’s long-time rival—the image, which has derived in the digital age into proliferating moving images. Social media’s short videos dominate, consuming time and reshaping poetic expression.
Amid this media dislocation, we must ask: how do old and new media interpret and respond to each other? Can moving images evolve into a new form of “poetry”? Is there a universal “poetic” essence that spans artistic form and ethics? How does the 21st century “scroll” its poetry?
The AMNUA annual program 21st Century Moving Images focuses on the role of moving images in the 21st-century media ecosystem. As the inaugural edition, Poetry, Moving Images Come After is co-organized by the Art Museum of Nanjing University of the Arts and the Goethe-Institut, with the support of Germany’s Zebra Poetry Film Festival and various international moving image organizations.
Using contemporary “poetry” as a starting point, the program brings together works from over thirty creators and collectives across different fields. Through exhibitions, screenings, performances, live connections, and a series of extended activities, these moving images flow and derive. They respond to the present through the unique characteristics of their medium, evoking a “poetry” that belongs to this derivate era, realized in real time and real space.
