Jean Vodaine Exhibition
The Verlaine Media Library presents a major exhibition about Jean Vodaine, inviting visitors to immerse themselves in the richness of his prolific work along a step-by-step journey into his creative universe. This exhibition pays tribute to the poet, engraver, and typographer Jean Vodaine. Jean Vodaine (1921-2006), born Friedrich Vladimir Kaucic in Slovenia, was a poet, publisher, and artist living in Lorraine. After training as a worker and holding various manual jobs, he devoted himself to artisanal printing and painting. He created several literary magazines, including "Poésie avec nous", "Le Courrier de la poésie" with Edmond Dune, and later "La Tour aux puces" and "Dire", a magazine with international resonance. He published many renowned authors and engravers. Passionate about his work, he said: "I don't make art, I make things. I make things to better serve poetry."
