History
The Verlaine media library presents a major exhibition about Jean Vodaine, inviting visitors to explore a prolific body of work through a step-by-step journey into his unique creative universe.
This exhibition is part of a tribute to the poet, engraver, and typographer Jean Vodaine. Presented in partnership with Forum-IRTS de Lorraine, Le Puzzle, Ville de Thionville, Centre national de littérature – Luxembourg, and the Jean Vodaine Association.
Jean Vodaine (1921-2006), born Friedrich Vladimir Kaucic in Slovenia, was a poet, publisher, and artist living in Lorraine. A self-taught man, he worked various jobs before dedicating himself to artisanal printing and painting. He created several journals such as "Poésie avec nous," "Le Courrier de la poésie" with Edmond Dune, "La Tour aux puces," and "Dire," which gained international recognition. He published works by Arrabal, Henry Miller, Léopold Sédar Senghor, Ernest Hemingway, Allen Ginsberg, as well as engravings by Gaston Chaissac and Jean Dubuffet.
