Une quinzaine d’invités--dont Olivier Chaudenson, Maison de la Poésie, Séverine Daucourt-Fridriksson, Jennifer K. Dick, Pierre Drogi, Franck Doyen, Sereine Berlottier, Franck Smith,  Mathieu Brosseau, Stéphane Bouquet, Manuel Daull, Didier Bourda, Aziyadé Baudoin-Talec--évalueront des solutions pragmatiques et parfois réjouissantes à l’équation paradoxale suivante : Comment faire en sorte que la poésie s’expose et se disperse librement dans un contexte culturel et économique normalisé ? Ce qui nécessite d’introduire un second questionnement :  Comment prendre à revers le champ poétique pour sortir la pratique poétique de son isolement formel et disciplinaire ?  Et enfin, dans quel programme d’urgence inscrire la poésie ? expositions, festivals, coéditions internationales, résidences en réseaux, création de communautés autour de programmes éditoriaux, réseau des booktubeurs…Des places sont disponibles sur inscriptions et appel à contribution pour auditeurs et contributeurs. Organisateurs : Sylvie Boulanger, Catherine Tourné, Paul de Brancion. Au CNEAI de Pantin. Déjeuner sur place.
