Judy Radul is an interdisciplinary artist who has worked with the spoken and written word, performance, installation, photography, video and film. She was the editor of Front Magazine and the curator at Front Gallery. She has published three books, Character Weakness rivulets cross cross cross vision (1993, KNUST press, Nijmegen, Holland)), Boner 9190 and the weak (1989, KNUST press, Nijmegen, Holland), and Rotating Bodies (1988, Peterad Press, Vancouver, Canada). Character Weakness rivulets cross cross cross vision is a limited edition hand-made artist’s book printed in full colour using a special process involving old and new Gestetner printing presses. Judy Radul’s writings follow visceral experiences to unexpected conclusions. She probes the soft underbelly of first-person experience, find the degradation, humiliation and occasionally, the exultation in being.

The A Space Events Committee in cooperation with FADO is pleased to sponsor a poetry reading by Vancouver artists Deanna Ferguson and Judy Radul, who are currently on tour to promote their new books. 

Deanna Ferguson’s collection of poems The Relative Minor was recently published by Tsunami Editions of Vancouver. Her work has also been published in absinthe, Front, hole, Jag, Raddle Moon, Writing, West Coast Line and the anthology East of Main (Pulp Press). Ferguson’s poems are a collage of fragmented images and familiar phrases, peopled with pop icons from Jack Kerouac and Sid Vicious to Spock and Elvis. The effect is a distillation of the violent and the mundane framed in an unsettling shorthand.
