May 17 | Rachel Zolf at The Poetry Project

Rachel Zolf (Neighbour Procedure, Human Resource) is working with 84 writers and artists on what could be the first collaborative MFA ever. Reactions to this conceptual writing project have ranged from lauding it as a long overdue Institutional Critique to deriding it as an arrogant violation of the MFA workshop’s privacy and sanctity. On Monday, May 17 at 8:00 p.m., Zolf will talk about the origins of the project and its challenges, describe how the collaborative poems emerge each week, and reveal some of the traces of poetic DNA collected in The Tolerance Project Archive. The Tolerance Project lives at thetoleranceproject.blogspot.com.
