The art exhibition Shtetl on Fontanka. From Chagall to the Present in St. Petersburg, covered by our website’s news section in July, was concluded by a poetry evening. Several poets and poetry translators recited their Russian translations of Abraham Sutzkever, Moyshe Kulbak, Leib Kvitko, Aaron Glanz-Leyeles and other famous Yiddish poets. We offer our readers a video recording of one part of the event, in which Yoel Matveyev, the editor-in-chief of this site, himself a poet and translator, recited his poetry translations from Yiddish.
