Workshop: Object Oriented Writing

Travis Jeppesen is a novelist, poet, art critic, and playwright currently touring the US for the release of his new novel, The Suiciders, published by Semiotext(e). Jeppesen’s writings on art and literature have appeared in Artforum, Bookforum, Flash Art, New York Press, Whitehot Magazine of Contemporary Art, and other publications. A contributing editor to the online literary journal 3ammagazine.com, Jeppesen lives in London and Berlin.

Jeppesen describes the process of Object Oriented Writing as “a new form—neither poetic nor art-critical, yet retaining characteristics of both . . . [this writing] positions itself within the work of art, and [includes] all the necessary contradictions and impossibilities embedded within such an approach.”

Jeppesen performs with Wirekid (Phillip Guichard) at the Henry Art Gallery on November 15.
