Résumé:
Pioneering conceptual artist Vito Acconci began his career as a poet. In the 1960s, before beginning his work in performance and video art, Acconci studied at the Iowa Writers Workshop and published poems in journals and chapbooks. Almost all of this work remains unknown; much of it appeared in the self-produced magazines of the Lower East Side's mimeo revolution, and many other pieces were never published. Language to Cover a Page collects these writings for the first time and not only shows Acconci to be an important experimental writer of the period, but demonstrates the continuity of his early writing with his later work in film, video, and performance. "Language to cover a page" documents a key moment in the unprecedented intersection of artists and poets in the late 1960s - as seen in the Dwan Gallery's series of "Language" shows (1967-1970) and in Acconci's own journal 0 to 9. Indeed, as Acconci moved from the poetry scene to the art world, his poetry became increasingly performative while his artwork was often structured and motivated by linguistic play. Acconci's early writing recalls the work of Samuel Beckett, the deadpan voice of the nouveau roman, and the jump cuts and fraught permutations of the nouvelle vague. Poems in "Language to cover a page" explore the materiality of language ("language as matter and not ideas," as Robert Smithson put it), the physical space of the page, and the physicality of source texts (phonebooks, thesauruses, dictionaries). Other poems take the space of the page as an analogue to performance space or implicate the poem in a network of activity (as in his "Dial-a-Poem" pieces).

Résumé:
Vito Acconci is well-known as a concept and performing artist who was far ahead of his time. In 2003, he realized one of his first architectural projects : for his artist-and-gallerist friend Kenny Schachter he designed the multifunctional gallery space conTEMPorary in New York. This experimental space became programmatic for their further collaboration, up to their latest project in King’s Cross, London. Over the past years, Vito Acconci has moved towards architecture. Today’s Acconci Studio covers planning for such diverse projects as the Skateboard Park in San Juan, the Inside-Out Bookstore for Documenta X, or an urban planning for Tel Aviv. Vito Acconci and Kenny Schachter met for two discussions in London and Basel in 2004 and 2005.
