The Los Angeles Writers Reading Series

GIVES READING AT GCC

            The Los Angeles Writers Reading
Series at Glendale Community College presents CalArts professor, writer, artist
and critic Matias Viegener on March 13 at 12:20 p.m. in the Student Center. 

He will give a reading of his work of
experimental writing “2,500 Random Things
about Me Too,” followed by a short question and answer session.  Admission is free and open to the public. 

In addition to writing and teaching,
in 2004 Viegener co-founded “Fallen Fruit,” a participatory art practice
focusing on fruit, urban space and public life. 
His fiction has been published extensively in journals and anthologies.
His artwork has been exhibited in venues such as LACMA, Yerba Buena Center for
the Arts and the Whitney Museum.  He is
co-editor of a number of experimental writing anthologies, including “Séance,” and “Anthology on the Future of Experimental Writing.”

The bi-annual Los Angeles Writers
Reading Series is coordinated by GCC English instructor Claire Phillips to
celebrate local writers and to give students access to literary events where
they can meet and talk with authors who wrote some of the material used in
their English classes.  Previous speakers
include Janet Fitch, Aimee Bender, Bernard Cooper, David L. Ulin and James
Ellroy.  For additional information call
