Virginie Lalucq was born in 1975 and lives in Paris. She is the author of Couper les tiges (Act Mem/ Comp’act, 2001) and Fortino Sámano, Les débordements du poème (with Jean-Luc-Nancy, Galilée 2004) translated by Sylvain Gallais and Cynthia Hogue (Omnidawn, 2012). She has been member of the editorial collective for the journal Nioques for twenty years. The Center for the Study of Poetry (ENS) in Lyons describes Lalucq’s poetry: “A certain desire to experiment characterizes her work, a desire that translates most clearly in the number of collaborative performances and writing projects.”
