Book excerpt: À la frontière entre le portugais et le français, Mots croisés (Palavras cruzadas) est un livre qui trouve son origine dans les notes de voyage écrites depuis 2010, lorsque j’ai atterri pour la première fois en France. Au cours de ces quatorze années, marquées par de multiples traversées de l’Atlantique, de nouvelles relations se sont nouées entre les mots et la distance. Dans le désir de la rencontre, les géographies et les sémantiques révélaient leur incertitude. Entre les corps, les lieux, les synonymes insoutenables. Des mots croisés uniquement sur le papier. Na fronteira entre o português e o francês, Palavras cruzadas (Mots croisés) é um livro que parte de anotações de viagens feitas desde a primeira vez que pousei na França, em 2010. Neste intervalo de quatorze anos, perpassado por diversas travessias no Atlântico, novas relações se desenhavam entre a palavra e a distância. No desejo do encontro, geografias e semânticas apontavam sua incerteza. Dos corpos, dos lugares, dos sinônimos insustentáveis. Palavras cruzadas apenas no papel.

Book Magritte

Download or read book Magritte written by Alex Danchev and published by Pantheon. This book was released on 2021-11-30 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first major biography of the pathbreaking, perpetually influential surrealist artist and iconoclast whose inspiration can be seen in everyone from Jasper Johns to Beyoncé—by the celebrated biographer of Cézanne and Braque In this thought-provoking life of René Magritte (1898-1967), Alex Danchev makes a compelling case for Magritte as the single most significant purveyor of images to the modern world. Magritte’s surreal sensibility, deadpan melodrama, and fine-tuned outrageousness have become an inescapable part of our visual landscape, through such legendary works as The Treachery of Images (Ceci n’est pas une pipe) and his celebrated iterations of Man in a Bowler Hat. Danchev explores the path of this highly unconventional artist from his middle-class Belgian beginnings to the years during which he led a small, brilliant band of surrealists (and famously clashed with André Breton) to his first major retrospective, which traveled to the United States in 1965 and gave rise to his international reputation. Using 50 color images and more than 160 black-and-white illustrations, Danchev delves deeply into Magritte’s artistic development and the profound questions he raised in his work about the very nature of authenticity. This is a vital biography for our time that plumbs the mystery of an iconoclast whose influence can be seen in everyone from Jasper Johns to Beyoncé.

Book The Imaginary  Word and Image

Download or read book The Imaginary Word and Image written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2015-05-19 with total page 363 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The imaginary as a critical concept originated in the twentieth century and has been theorized in diverse ways. It can be understood as a register of thought; the way we interpret the world; the universe of images, signs, texts, and objects of thought. In this volume, it is explored as it manifests itself in encounters between the verbal and the visual. A number of the essays brought together here explore the transposition of the imaginary in illustrations of texts and verbal renditions of images, as well as in comic books based on paintings or on verbal narratives. Others analyze ways in which books deal with film or television and investigate the imaginary in digital media. Special attention is paid to the imaginary of places and the relationship of the imaginary with memory. Written in English and French, these contributions by European and American scholars demonstrate the various concerns and approaches characteristic of contemporary scholarship in word and image studies.

Book The Culture of Fragments

Download or read book The Culture of Fragments written by Orban and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2023-11-20 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Works of art such as paintings with words on them or poems shaped as images communicate to the viewer by means of more than one medium. Here is presented a particular group of hybrid art works from the early twentieth century, to discover in what way words and images can function together to create meaning. The four central artists considered in this study investigate word/image forms in their work. F.T. Marinetti invented parole in libertà, among other ideas, to free language from syntactic connections. Umberto Boccioni experimented with newspaper clippings on the canvas from 1912-1915, and these collages constitute an important exploration into word/image forms. André Breton's collection of poems Clair de terre (1923) contains several typographical variations for iconographic effect. René Magritte explored the relationship between words and images, juxtaposing signifiers to contradictory signifieds on the canvas. A final chapter introduces media other than poetry and painting on which words and images appear. Posters, the theater, and the relatively new medium of cinema foreground words and images constantly. This volume will be of interest to scholars of twentieth-century French or Italian literature or painting, and to scholars of word and image studies.

Book Marcel Broodthaers

  • Author : Deborah Schultz
  • Publisher : Peter Lang
  • Release : 2007
  • ISBN : 9783039109180
  • Pages : 312 pages

Download or read book Marcel Broodthaers written by Deborah Schultz and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2007 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The poet and artist Marcel Broodthaers (1924-76) is widely recognized as a key figure in 20th century art who questioned the nature of art, the role of the artist, the functioning of the museum and of the art market. This book sets out Broodthaers's strategy for artistic success and examines the dialogue into which he entered with his contemporaries and predecessors in 19th century French poetry, Pop and Conceptual Art, including Stéphane Mallarmé, Charles Baudelaire, Marcel Duchamp and René Magritte. It provides a broad overview of his objects, paintings, films, slides, books and installations, and his focus upon relationships, also central to Post-Structuralist and postmodern theories. The visual qualities of his works, combining the material with the poetic, his wit and irony, are examined in relation to his subtle method of questioning and contradicting, defying conventional systems and definitions. The author explores the wider framing contexts in which things are presented and the geographical context via maps, notions of the voyage and a sense of place. Institutional critique, the artist's political position and moral responsibilities in society are discussed by analyzing the responses of Broodthaers, Daniel Buren, Joseph Beuys and Hans Haacke to a series of museum events in the early 1970s.

Book The Pictorial Third

Download or read book The Pictorial Third written by Liliane Louvel and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-05-23 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Pictorial Third: An Essay into Intermedial Criticism examines the extent to which poetry intertwines with painting and the visual at large, and studies the singular relationship established between language and image, observesing the modalities and workings of what is termed ‘intermedial transposition‘. By following a critical method of the close analysis of texts, the book examines to what extent the "pictorial" tool may be of help to analyze literary texts and thus enlarge and enrich literary criticism. Examining the technical notions typical of the medium and its history, including perspective, framing, colour, anamorphosis, trompe-l’œil, Veronica veil, still life, portrait, figure, illusion, apparatus, genres and styles, this volume presents a pragmatics of image-in-text and of the visual-in-text as an operative tool. This "pictorial" reading necessarily includes synesthesia and the senses; it also functions as a reading event , or what happens to one when one unawares encounters a picture (be it present in the book or the object of an ekprhasis). Thus the body is eventually given back a role to play. The sensitive approach has its own resonances and the eye or the gaze sometimes sees double in such intermedially oriented texts. This volume proposes to identify the pictorial third as the phenomenon which can be apprehended in terms of effect or affect not only as a concept.

Book Utilisation des images d archives dans l   audiovisuel

Download or read book Utilisation des images d archives dans l audiovisuel written by CARNEL Jean-Stéphane and published by Lavoisier. This book was released on 2012-04-16 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Par l'intermédiaire d'illustrations audiovisuelles, les journaux télévisés montrent le passé, le présent, mais aussi, paradoxalement, l'avenir. Ces programmes recourent aux images d'archives qui peuvent constituer près de 20 % de la durée d'une édition. Ces réutilisations quotidiennes d'images anciennes, qui ne sont généralement pas remarquées par le téléspectateur, présentent un défi pour les documentalistes qui les compilent. Quelles sont les méthodes utilisées pour répondre à ces besoins, anticiper les demandes urgentes et gérer les contraintes de production de contenus ? Comment sont sélectionnées, dès leur arrivée dans le service d'archives, les images possédant le plus important potentiel de réutilisation ? Les images aux aspects les plus stéréotypés sont sélectionnées pour proposer des supports pertinents et vraisemblables aux discours journalistiques. Par la redondance de leur utilisation, elles s'inscrivent dans nos répertoires visuels et donnent une image temporelle et un reflet de notre société.

Book Picturing the Language of Images

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Picturing the Language of Images is a collection of thirty-three previously unpublished essays that explore the complex and ever-evolving interaction between the verbal and the visual. The uniqueness of this volume lies in its bringing together scholars from around the world to provide a broad synchronic and diachronic exploration of the relationship between text and image, as well as a reflection on the limits of representation through a re-thinking of the very acts of reading and viewing. While covering a variety of media—such as literature, painting, photography, film and comics—across time—from the 18th century to the 21st century—this collection also provides a special focus on the work of particular authors, such as A. S. Byatt, W. G. Sebald, and Art Spiegelman.

Book Poetic Images  Presence  and the Theater of Kenotic Rituals

Download or read book Poetic Images Presence and the Theater of Kenotic Rituals written by Enikő Sepsi and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-09-29 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the interrelation of contemporary French theatre and poetry. Using the pictorial turn in the various branches of art and science, its observable features, and the theoretical framework of the conceptual metaphor, this study seeks to gather together the divergent manners in which French poetry and theatre address this turn. Poetry in space and theatricality of poetry are studied alongside theatre, especially to the performative aspect of the originally theological concept of "kenosis". In doing so the author attempts to make use of the theological concept of kenosis, of central importance in Novarina’s oeuvre, for theatrical and dramatological purposes. Within poetic rituals, kenotic rituals are also examined in the book in a few theatrical practices – János Pilinszky and Robert Wilson, Jerzy Grotowski and Eugenio Barba – facilitating a better understanding of Novarina’s works. Accompanied by new English translations in the appendices, this is the first English language monograph related to the French essayist, dramaturg and director Valère Novarina’s theatre, and will be of great interest to students and scholars in theatre and literature studies.
