Josef Hlavacek writes in his introduction, ''The relationship between the image and the letter could be called mutual initiation. It became evident that the letter as an object not only of literary but also of artistic interest has a long history with particular accents in classical antiquity, the era of the Baroque and the avant-garde of the 1910s and '20s...The experiment in poetry was brought about by what was essentially a direct reaction to the problematic line of civic poetry...[Then] attention became focused on the word as an independent phenomenon and language...A third stimulus stemmed from a strong interest in how art mediates information about the outer world through artistic signs, doing so in a much more direct way than the spoken or written word."

poi / Chopin, Henri., 1966

 Item
Identifier: CC-18673-19046
Scope and Contents

Wikipedia: Poi refers to both a style of performing art and the equipment used for engaging in poi performance. Poi originated from the Māori people of New Zealand as a performance art that involves swinging tethered weights through a variety of rhythmical and geometric patterns. Poi artists may also sing or dance while swinging their poi. Poi can be made from various materials with different handles, weights, and effects (such as fire). Poi originated with the Māori people of New Zealand, where it is still practiced today. Poi has also gained a following in many other countries. The expansion of poi culture has led to a significant evolution of the styles practiced, the tools used, and the definition of the word "poi." Poi is not a French word. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
