A travers les procédures cliniques et expérimentales, à travers l'hypnose et les " présentations " de malades en crise (les célèbres " leçons du mardi "), on découvre l'espèce de théâtralité stupéfiante, excessive, du corps hystérique. On la découvre ici à travers les images photographiques qui nous en sont restées, celles des publications, aujourd'hui rarissimes, de l'Iconographie photographique de la Salpêtrière. Mais l'analyse de ces images révèle aussi l'acte de mise en scène dont les hystériques furent l'objet de la part des médecins. Charcot fut là un " artiste ", mais dans quel sens ? C'est à quoi ce livre introduit. Freud fut le témoin de tout cela, et son témoignage devint la confrontation d'une écoute toute nouvelle de l'hystérie avec ce spectacle de l'hystérie que Charcot mettait en oeuvre. Témoignage qui nous raconte les débuts de la psychanalyse sous l'angle du problème de l'image.

Une esthétique que Georges Didi-Huberman développe à partir de l'analyse minutieuse - textes et images mêlés et confrontés - de Documents, la revue d'art que Georges Bataille, aves ses compagnons Michel Leiris, Carl Einstein, Marcel Griaule, et quelques autres, a dirigée en 1929 et 1930. Dans cette revue, Bataille a fait preuve d'une stupéfiante radicalité dans la tentative de dépasser, de «décomposer» comme il disait, les fondements mêmes de l'esthétique classique. Au-delà des lectures «empathiques» dont Bataille a fait souvent l'objet, l'auteur tente de dégager une leçon de méthode pour l'histoire de l'art et pour l'esthétique d'aujourd'hui : la conjonction d'une pensée transgressive et d'une pensée déjà structurale, la conjonction des avant-gardes artistiques (peinture, sculpture, cinéma, photographie) et des sciences humaines (archéologie, histoire, ethnologie, psychanalyse). Tout cela fait de Documents un véritable moment clef dans notre pensée moderne de l'image.

They revisit from fresh perspectives key issues regarding modernity and postmodernity, including the relationship between art and broader social and political currents as well as important questions about temporality and change. They also reflect on whether or not broad categories and terms such as modernity, postmodernity, globalization, and decolonization are still relevant or useful. Including twenty essays and seventy-seven images, Antinomies of Art and Culture is a wide-ranging yet incisive inquiry into how to understand, describe, and represent what it is to live in the contemporary moment.

Among the works discussed are digitally oriented films by Peter Greenaway, Jean-Luc Godard, and Chris Marker; video installations by Thierry Kuntzel, Keith Piper, and Renate Ferro; and interactive media works by Toni Dove, David Rokeby, and Jill Scott. Sophisticated readings reveal the electronic psychosocial webs and digital representations that link text, film, and computer. Murray puts forth an innovative Deleuzian psychophilosophical approach—one that argues that understanding new media art requires a fundamental conceptual shift from linear visual projection to nonlinear temporal folds intrinsic to the digital form.

With contributions from Marion von Osten, Nav Haq, 16 Beaver, Copenhagen Free University, Maria Lind and Lars Nilsson, it examines the working relations between artists and other producers of culture, and explores the future of collective action in the art world. In recent years, the art world has shown a renewed interest in collective work and activity. Collaborations between artists and artists, artists and curators, and artists and outside professionals have begun to rival the traditional focus on the individual artist. This type of collaboration has called into question how we view works of art that are not the voice of a single individual, and how that impacts on the concept of art as a means of self-expression.

Their essays explore the remarkable nature of art historians’ personal, political, aesthetic, creative, and emotive curiosity and the process of doing research in the archive, library, studio, gallery, museum, and beyond. As such, the book considers the pleasures and dangers of researchers’ obsessions and encounters with the incoherence, chaos, and wonder that lie at the heart of searching for the not-yet-known. The volume is based on the 2007 Clark Conference of the same name.

Résumé:
In this book Michael Fried considers the work of four contemporary artists--video artist and photographer Anri Sala, sculptor Charles Ray, painter Joseph Marioni, and video artist and intervener in movies Douglas Gordon. He shows how their respective projects are best understood as engaging in a variety of ways with some of the core themes and issues associated with high modernism, and indeed with its prehistory in French painting and art criticism from Diderot on. 'Four Honest Outlaws' thus continues the author's exploration of the critical and philosophical territory opened up by his earlier book, 'Why Photography Matters as Art as Never Before.' It presents a vision of the most important contemporary art as not only not repudiating modernism in the name of postmodernism in any of the latter's many forms and manifestations, but also actually as committed to dialectically renewing certain crucial qualities and values that modernism and premodernism brought to the fore, above all those of presentness and anti-theatricality.
