The Call to Poetry was a one-night performance art / international poetry gathering event held April 5, 2012, in Istanbul, near Taksim Square, widely promoted and heavily attended by international poets to celebrate the history of poetry with a dramatic reading of the world’s oldest love poem, which is housed in the Istanbul Archaeology Museums.[1]
The Call to Poetry garnered significant interest in Istanbul, the greater Middle East and the US,[2] as did a portion of the evening dedicated to poetry of the Arab Spring.[3]
