The Innovation in Irish Poetry conference at University College Cork is calling for paper submissions .  

The conference will investigate issues surrounding innovation in Irish poetry. Its aim is not only to re-examine the influence that Irish writers have had on 20th Century literature, but also to explore the current status of Irish innovative poetics in the 21st Century.  

The conference will take place in University College Cork on 12 July - coinciding with the 15th SoundEye festival of the Arts of the Word (July 13-17). Papers should be approx. 20 minutes in length..

I think Avant Garde is the order of the day.
