Convocation of postal art

In the autumn of 2006, The Única Puerta a la Izquierda (The Only Door to the Left) (L.U.P.I) organised the encounter between currents, tendencies and "operators" that had as uniting link that experimentation, and offered to the public, more than a simple exhibition that is unusual or showy, an intense debate about our complex cultural and artistic reality.

Today the Biennale of Experimental Poetry in Euskadi – EXPOSÍA 2008, recovers those "I jornadas…" celebrated in Barakalo in 2006, for its coordinators, in cooperation with Spazi Grossi and the Cultural Association L.U.P.I., have decided to organise the following.

BIENNALE OF EXPERIMENTAL POETRY IN EUSKADI – EXPOSÍA 2008

This convocation pretends to give importance to the container as well as a means of communication, since within the uncountable ways and supports used in Postal Arts, this is Postal Art in itself, Ilustrated and without the need to hold nothin in its interior, the container (the envelope) plays with the patience and shrewdness of the employees at the post office, which have to find out, in many occations, where the information is put to whom is the adressee, affirmed by José Luis Campal, or a exhibition space, open to bee see by everybody, which is the case in "Los sobres galería" ("The containers galery") of Clemente Padín.
