ALTA46: The Place of Translation

Tulsa Artist Fellowship is a place-based, durational arts initiative that brings contemporary artists across all mediums, including literary translation, to Tulsa, Oklahoma. This panel, composed of four Tulsa Artist Fellows, all of whom translate in the same geographic place, poses whether translating as part of a placed-based artist collective creates “a more inclusive space for the production and reception of translation.” It also asks whether belonging to a multidisciplinary collective informs the choices that the translators make. Lastly, it interrogates whether the physical place in which the translators work informs the choices they make. Put another way, does the translation become marked by the same sociocultural and linguistic features that characterize the place itself?
