Scope and Contents Jakub Hanzi (internet): Jiri Valoch (1946-) theorist, art critic, columnist, exhibit curator, and conceptual artist. He is the creator of visual and conceptual poetry, photographic poetry and photographic concepts, text installations and conceptual drawings. Between 1965-1970 he studied German Language and Literature, Czech Language and Literature, and Aesthetics at the College of Philosophy (Philosophical Faculty) of Masaryk University in Brno.

Kykafrikaans / Boshoff, Willem Hendrik., 1980

 Item
Identifier: CC-24223-24675
Scope and Contents This is the manuscript for the only typewritten, concrete poetry book published in South Africa. Each page is recorded as a single entry into the database. Boshoff achieved optical effects by weighting the density of typewritten letters in different portions of the poem through overtyping and creating diagonals by placement of the same letter in that direction. Includes an optical effects poem in a circular shape achieved by formating typewritten fragments in the manner of Houedard. This work was purchased from Tony Zwicker after the Sackners met Boshoff in 1996 in Zwicker's Grammercy Park loft. It was exhibited at Miami Art Museum during the Global Conceptualism show. Boshoff in "word forms and language shapes 1975 - 2007" writes the following: The first edition of this work is an anthology of concrete poetry published by Uitgewery Pannevis, which was founded by Markus de Jong. During its short existence it focused on printing alternative Afrikaans literature. The book comprises...
