Curator and writer Matthias Göritz and Volha Hapeyeva, also a writer, will read the poems of the regional and international authors presented in the Poetry Vending Machines. They will talk about their own poems and read from their books. Regional poets and contributors will also be on site. The event will be accompanied by music.
Old condom and chewing gum vending machines that have been converted into poetry dispensers have been standing in the Ausseerland communities of Grundlsee, Bad Mitterndorf and Bad Aussee since May 2024. For 50 cents each, 14 different poems can be drawn.
