Jean Vodaine Exhibition
The Verlaine media library presents a major exhibition dedicated to Jean Vodaine, allowing visitors to immerse themselves in the richness of his work through a multi-stage journey at the heart of Vodaine's creative world. This exhibition is part of a tribute to the poet, engraver, and typographer Jean Vodaine, in partnership with various institutions and associations.
Jean Vodaine (1921-2006), born Friedrich Vladimir Kaucic in Slovenia, was a poet, publisher, and artist living in Lorraine. After working in manual trades, he devoted himself to artisanal printing and painting. In the late 1940s, he created his first magazine, then "Le Courrier de la poésie", "La Tour aux puces", and finally "Dire", which he published for twenty-two years, featuring great names such as Arrabal, Henry Miller, Léopold Sedar Senghor, Ernest Hemingway, Allen Ginsberg, as well as engravings from Gaston Chaissac and Jean Dubuffet.
