The Austrian Poet Gerhard Rühm, co-founder of the legendary Wiener Gruppe, and the German artist Monika Lichtenfeld are the special guests of the conference Confrontations. Experimental Dutch and German Literature of the Long Sixties (8-9 September 2015, venue: KVAB).

Gerhard Rühm will perform Sprechtexte and, together with Monika Lichtenfeld, Sprechduette. Rühm's experimental artistic production has a strong intermedial character, exploring visual and aural poetic forms, musical structures in language, and text-sound transformations.
