Abstract
EN: Visual poetry is the original rather modern part of the poetic art that is the synthesis of literature and fine arts. The aim of this article is to analyze visual poetry in Ukrainian émigré poetry in Canada as a new form of word expression. Among the most well-known authors are Yars Balan, Mykola Soroka, Brian Dedora, Andrew Suknaski etc. They were mostly inspired both by Ukrainian baroque and modern literature and Canadian visual poetry.
Visual poets can be distinguished by the radicalization of the means of communication and be differentiated from other experiences for not semantic values. Graphic-phonetic relations and the substantive use of space as an element of composition maintain a simultaneous dialectic of eye and voice.
The structure achieved by arranging the verbal elements in the space of the page according to a text-specific strategy can be considered as visible idea. This form is quite suitable for the implementation of global, psychological and national issues.
