A Guerrilla Reading by Kenneth Goldsmith




MoMA Talks: Performances and Readings show

Summary: Friday, April 5, 2013, 3:00 p.m. Kenneth Goldsmith reads selections from Charles Reznikoff's Holocaust (1975) in front of Edvard Munch's The Scream (1895). As part of Kenneth Goldsmith's Poet Laureate program, he invites renowned writers to choose works in MoMA's collection, develop a response, and then select a space in the Museum galleries where they will perform the resulting readings and texts on Wednesdays. On selected Fridays, Goldsmith himself will contribute readings in the galleries. Visitors can meet the writers directly in their selected gallery. This program is a part of MoMA's Artists Experiment initiative.
