Jean Vodaine Exhibition
The Verlaine Media Library presents a major exhibition dedicated to Jean Vodaine, inviting visitors to immerse themselves in the richness of his work through a step-by-step journey into his creative world.
This exhibition is organized as a tribute to the poet, engraver, and typographer Jean Vodaine (1921-2006), born Friedrich Vladimir Kaucic in Slovenia. Poet, editor, and artist living in Lorraine, he started as a manual worker before dedicating himself to artisanal printing and painting. In the late 1940s, he created his first magazine, "Poésie avec nous", followed by other journals such as "Le Courrier de la poésie" and "Dire", which featured many renowned authors and artists.
A passionate creator, Jean Vodaine said of his work: "I don't make art, I make things. I make things to better serve poetry."
