In the tradition of concrete poetry and Fluxus: visual poems and more from Brazilian artist and poet Alex Hamburger
Drawing from notions of "bad poetry" as the critical undoing of normative taste, Antilogy brings together works by the Brazilian artist and poet Alex Hamburger. Central to Hamburger's practice and engagement with poetry is a focus on writing as the expression of a performative disruption and playful reworking of semiotic systems. With references to Fluxus intermediality, Brazilian concretism, experimental music and sound poetry, Hamburger's work dynamically collapses the distinctions between fact and fiction, theory and performance, system and noise. From visual poems to abstract narrative to personal fantasy, Antilogy reminds us about the potent sense of refusal and experimentation that all art should carry.

Alex Hamburger est né à Belgrade en 1948. Il avait six ans lorsque sa famille a émigré au Brésil en 1954. Il a obtenu un diplôme en économie à la faculté de São José do Rio Preto, à São Paulo, puis s'est installé à Rio de Janeiro en 1973 où il s'est intéressé à la littérature et aux arts visuels. À partir de 1975, il a voyagé en Europe, vivant à Paris pendant six mois et à Londres pendant un an et demi, ce qui lui a permis d'approfondir et d'élargir ses connaissances dans ses principaux domaines d'intérêt. À partir des années 1980, ses recherches et ses propositions se sont tournées vers les possibilités de fusion et d'entrelacement des langages, développant des travaux en poésie visuelle et sonore, des poèmes-objets, des livres d'artiste, des installations, des performances, etc. Durant cette période et les décennies suivantes, il a réalisé et participé à divers expositions collectives et personnelles, tant au Brésil qu'à l'étranger. Il a publié sept livres dans différents genres poétiques, trois CD de poésie sonore et a réalisé plusieurs performances, certaines en partenariat avec l'artiste Márcia X, avec laquelle il a établi une relation fructueuse tout au long des années 1980. Ses œuvres figurent dans les collections d'institutions d'art contemporain, au Brésil et à l'étranger, notamment les musées d'art moderne de Rio de Janeiro et de São Paulo, Printed Matter, New York, le Compendium of Contemporary Fine Prints, Hamburg, l'ICA, Londres. Alex Hamburger vit et travaille à Rio de Janeiro.
