Jiri Kolar

As a part of our 1968 project, we have been studying dissident artists, poets and writers.
One artist/poet that we have been studying is Jiri Kolar.
Each student is presenting his biography, an explanation of poetry and visual poetry
 and their own personal analysis of a chosen visual poem.
Enjoy!

  2. To me, Maeva’s analysis is a good one. Her analysis is absolutely logical because she makes a link with the poem and the date of creation. It’s a successful also because we understand her interpretation. It’s simple and she gives us the main elements with a clear voice.

  3. I found the Emma's video quite interesting. She chose the right words to tell Jiri Kolar's life with informations that I didn't have so I learnt more about him. Otherwise,I clearly understood his conception of poetry and the visual poetry. The work of Jiri Kolar she chose pleased me as well. Sometimes, the wording was not perfect but it doesn't matter because we feel that there was a lot of work time behind.Congratulation!

  6. Luce's interpretation is interseting because the she really imagines what Jiri Kolar was thinking when doing this collage. It also shows that art was an escape from the war and took him to an "ideal world" as she says it.

  7. To begin, Manon presents the summary what is quiet good. She explains clearly and simply the life of Jiri Kolar. She presents visual poetry with her own words and with a simple definition that makes us understand without difficulty. Manon mentions that on the board "oublier" there are texts of different languages ​​to which I would not have thought, I like the idea that you do not have to speak a certain language to understand poetry as she says, the description is clear and simple, good work!
