Our new Festival Location and cooperation partner is the whiteBOX.art Munich.
Located right in Munich‘s new creative hotspot the whiteBOX made its mark as one of the most important venues for concerts, exhibitions and all kinds of performances of exciting acts both national and international.
Taking advantage of the area‘s interdisciplinary potential attracting an diverse and curious audience, the festival has access to the whiteBOX network of media-, lighting- and stage-artists .
The whiteBox provides the festival with two spaces: the large „BOX“ and a spacious artists studio. Both can be used in most flexible ways, adjusted according to the needs of the individual performances, and are ideally suited for the festival cross-over projects.
The whiteBOX is surrounded by various restaurants and is easily reached by public transport at the nearby Ostbahnhof-hub. And the trendy neighbourhood of „Haidhausen“ is within walking distance.
„In the whiteBOX art is being lived – every day“.

Vienna 1993
the vienna poetry school (sfd) was founded by writers, poets, performers and experimental language artists as an independent artists' project in 1991. it started its public work in april 1992, with the organization of 12 classes and an international symposium on the topic of the “teachability and learnability of literature”.
the poetry concept oscillates between “writing” and “multimedia”, between “analog” and “digital”, between “native language”, “foreign language” and “multilingualism”. sfd does not offer any formal education in a classical sense. instead, it organizes instructive encounters with renowned authors. the focus is on practical exercises.
along with analog and digital classes, the poetry school organizes symposia, concerts, readings, discussions, round table discussions, lectures, exhibitions, presentations, and multimedia performances.
topics include written poetry, oral poetry, experimental poetry, audiovisual poetry, visual poetry, acoustic poetry, concrete poetry, performative poetry, poésie sonore, beat poetry, prose, pop music, songwriting, film, video, new media, installations, and performances.
