And I will never be able to find the right picture to present them...because they are ALL about WORDS!
- So, read below!
Les Liseuses Fabuleuses is a literary
voice club revolving around Anne-Marie Segers, Wim Goossens, Kim
Verthé, Isabel Voets and Carla Rosseels. The initiative was started
in 2011, and was inspired by the Viennese and Parisian literary
salons, as well as the film La Lectrice, about a woman who
earns a living reading to people in their homes.
Les Liseuses Fabuleuses will read in
all word-friendly places: offices, on promenades along the Belgian
coast, in libraries, museums, cafes, on CD/DVD, in the poetry taxi.
They offer packages around motley themes such as
love, coffe and eternal youth, but will gladly compile new packages.
Literature is the stuff of everyday
life, like eating bread and brushing teeth, which is why Les Liseuses
and ist voices opt for accessible and flowing poems. All
Liseuses are professionally involved with words. New at Les Liseuses
are the poetry installation
rentals.
So far, Les Liseuses
Fabuleuses have read in Antwerp, Brussels, Gent, Ostend, Bruges,
Holland, Madrid, Barcelona… But also for Flemish TV programmes such
as Man Bijt Hond, on TV channel Vitaya and in supermarkets. Les
Liseuses have worked and still work with, amongst others, literary
organizers Behoud De Begeerte, Passa Porta International
Literature Brussels, Stichting Lezen, Creatief Schrijven, Antwerpen
Averechts, Fundacion Carlos de Amberes.
Stemmen. Ronde, warme, zachte stemmen.
Wapperende stemmen. En dan woorden. Blote, onvervalste, mooie
woorden. Gedichten die je naar adem doen happen. Verhalen die blijven
plakken in je hoofd. Dat is het speelterrein van Les Liseuses
Fabuleuses, een literaire stemmenclub, geïnspireerd door de
romantische salons in Wenen en Parijs, en door de film La
lectrice.
En wat is dan wel de bedoeling? Uw
bibliotheek, museum, tuinfeest, bedrijfsevenement of festival
versieren met themalezingen, al dan niet met live-muziek.
Kant-en-klare lezingen of maatwerk – aan u de keuze. Misschien gaat
u voor de Poëzietaxi of voor een poëzie-installatie – alles kan.
Food for the soul – voor
minder doen we het niet. Taalplezier van de bovenste plank.
