Writing the World: From Copenhagen to New York

Join us for a conversation on “Writing the World from Copenhagen to NYC” - a program that presents the work of four talented early-career writers who have been selected by faculty at Forfatterskolen, Copenhagen, and the Columbia University School of the Arts, New York, to represent the best of new writing in Danish and English: Sophia Acuña, Christian Fobian, Patricio Hernández Palazuelos and Krista Winther.

In cooperation between these two arts institutions, the four Word for Word Exchange Writers have been engaged in a collaborative project of mutual translation. Moderated by Katrine Øgaard Jensen, they will present excerpts from the resulting work here in a multilingual reading and discussion about international 21st century art-making with writers on the faculty of both institutions.
