NO PALM TREES. NO LIONS. NO MONKEYS.

My family has always been on the 'perpetrator' side. Great-grandfather: soldier in the Herero War. Don’t know how many he killed. Grandfather: Nazi. Parents and I: whites in the Apartheid system. And then I left Africa to its fate, and moved to Europe.

TRANSFORMATIONS

Read by Priscilla Be and Manon Kahle

In the late 1960s American poet ANNE SEXTON spent a lot of time writing new versions of some of the well-know Grimm´s fairy tales such as Rapunzel, Snow White, or Rumpelstiltskin. In 1971, seventeen of those poetic cover versions (as they would be called were they rock or pop songs) were published in a collection called TRANSFORMATIONS. In these poems Sexton retells the tales from the perspective of "a middle-aged witch, me," creating some comic moments and leading to some surprising conclusions that are not part of the original tales.

LOOKING FOR ANNE

LOOKING FOR ANNE creates a space for experiencing the juxtapositions of interior and exterior spaces and the numerous time lines which are inherent in "The Glass Essay". It invites the audience member to be an active participant, reading the poem or positioning him/herself in the installation.

LOOKING FOR ANNE schafft einen Erfahrungsraum für die Überlagerung von inneren und äußeren Räumen und mehreren Zeitschienen, die The Glass Essay innewohnen. Er bietet dem Zuschauer an, aktiver Teilnehmer zu sein, das Gedicht zu lesen oder sich in der Installation zu positionieren.
