Poetry. Christian Hawkey's VENTRAKL folds poetry, prose, biography, translation practices, and photographic imagery into a ground-breaking collaboration with the 19th / early 20th century Austrian Expressionist poet Georg Trakl. What evolves is a candid and deeply felt portrait of two authorsâ€”one at the beginning of the 20th century, the other at the beginning of the 21st century, one living and one deadâ€”wrestling with fundamental concerns: how we read texts and images, how we are influenced and authored by other writers, and how the practice of translationâ€”including mistranslationâ€”is a way to ornament and enrich the space between literature and life.
