30 years of Loewe’s prize

BEN CLARK, ANTONIO LUCAS AND SHEILA LOEWE

Venue: Biblioteca Pública de Segovia, Auditorio

Fundación Loewe and its International Poetry Prize celebrate their 30th birthday. For three decades they have been drawing the map of contemporary poetry in Spanish, commemorated within the documentary POESÍA eres tú, a work produced by Fundación Dadá Films and directed by Charlie Arnáiz and Alberto Ortega. The film offers a plural vision of the current Spanish poetry scene through the voices of the jury and the Premio LOEWE´s list of winners.

After the screening of the documentary, the winner of the 30th edition of the prize, Ben Clark, and Antonio Lucas, winner of 2013 edition, will read a selection of their poems. Sheila Loewe, Director of Loewe Foundation, chairs the event.
