Writing Lab with Lisa Spalt

Which forms and techniques work best for you to convey the impression of a moving body? A poem? A summer song?

The writing lab approaches the theme “Body in Summer” from multiple perspectives. Inspirations from authors of different eras and genres, as well as from people and places in public spaces, and the potential of an inclusive group, provide material for your own text production. The inputs from the author and the introduction to methods and techniques from the writing lab ensure sustainable knowledge transfer.

The writing lab with Lisa Spalt engages with the 2025 focus of KunstRaum Goethestrasse xtd, “Body. On Expanding Spaces”, and builds on experiences from the Schreibzeit group.

Lisa Spalt: has been working since 1996 in a literary field concerned with how we make sense of the world, writes books, and translates literary texts from French. In 2016, she founded the Institute for Poetic Everyday Improvement. “I don’t believe in manifestos, which is why I write ‘Manisofte’.”
