The Material Poem is a new e-anthology, edited by James Stuart and published by ‘non-generic productions’. It features the work of some 28 Australian poets, artists and critics, all of whom are engaged with poetry, and more broadly language, as a material form. It showcases the vibrancy of experimental writing practices in Australia, demonstrating how writing functions outside the purely literary. The Material Poem will be launched by Katrina Schwarz, editor of Art and Australia with new-media performances and an experimental short film screening.
