About
A screening of video poetry packages from fellow festivals around the world featuring a selection of non-English language works. Showcase will include curated picks from Nudo Festival de Poesia Visual in Barcelona, Spain; Ó Bhéal International Poetry-Film Competition in Cork, Ireland; and International Video Poetry Festival in Athens, Greece.

NUDO, visual poetry festival (April 37, 2019)
is an annual poetic gathering celebrating the contemporary poetic reality without limits of borders or formats since 2017. Poetry today is booming and in constant dialogue with other disciplines: illustration, video, dance, music, collage, painting, photography, cinema. NUDO features videopoetry screenings, workshops, live performances and visual poetry exhibitions, all in an intimate environment where the love of words and beauty reigns. Held in Barcelona in several venues, its a party for the senses.

Ó Bhéal International Poetry-Film Competition
in association with the IndieCork Festival of Independent Film and Music, (October 613, 2019) presents a showcase of competition winners to date. 2019 will be Ó Bhéals tenth year screening international poetry-films, and seventh year featuring this competition. Shortlisted films are screened during the festival in October and one winner receives the Indie Cork / Ó Bhéal prize for best Poetry-Film.

International Video Poetry Festival
(February 2020) in Athens, Greece is organized by the +Institute [for ExperimentalArts] and Void Network. Void Network began organizing multimedia poetry nights in 1990. Void Network and +the Institute [for Experimental Arts] believe that multimedia poetry nights and video poetry shows can vibrate in the heart of the metropolis, bring new audiences in contact with contemporary poetry, and open new creative dimensions for this ancient art.
