The Religious Studies and Creative Writing programs at Eugene Lang College welcome poet and performer Anne Waldman and film director Alystryre Julian.
A screening of the documentary Outrider, about poet Anne Waldman will be followed by an open discussion with Anne Waldman, director Alystyre Julian, and Christopher Kelley, Ph.D., Assistant Professor of Religious Studies.
Outrider is a portal into fast-speaking poet Anne Waldman and her six decades birthing vibrant communities of poets, performers, and activists—from Greenwich Village, St. Mark's Poetry Project, and Naropa University 'Jack Kerouac School of Disembodied Poetics,' onwards to Mexico City, Casablanca, and more. Guided by ancestors of the Beat generation and poetic kinships with radical female musicians—Patti Smith, Laurie Anderson, Cecilia Vicuña, Meredith Monk—Outrider celebrates Waldman's role as a visionary word-worker and a transcendent presence, singing out in the ancient, bardic tradition the thunderous power of poetry.
Co-Sponsored by the Religious Studies department at  Eugene Lang College of Liberal Arts and the MFA Creative Writing program at The New School for Social Research.
