Abstract

The essays collected in this volume focus on the interrelated themes of mimesis, semiosis and power, each study exploring some facet of the problem of representation and its relation to strategies of power in the use of verbal and visual signs. Topics discussed include mimesis and power in Plato's Ion, rhetoric and erotics in Petrarch's thought; the limits of visual and verbal representation in Renaissance paintings of the Annunciation; binary thought and Peirce's triadic semiotics; the cinematic semiotics of Gilles Deleuze; fascist iconography in the paintings of Anselm Kiefer; oppositional s

Abstract

Qui n'a pas entendu parler de l'affaire Katz, du nom de ce livre, détournement du Maus de Art Spiegelman, qui fit l'objet d'un procès en contrefaçon puis d'une destruction par le pilon devant huissier ? Katz avait, par une opération simple et systématique, proposé une nouvelle interprétation et une relecture de Maus : toutes les têtes des différentes espèces avaient été remplacées par des têtes de chat. Comme Art Spiegelman avait publié MetaMaus, avec un dvd-bonus, pour revenir sur la genèse et les prolongements de Maus, La 5e Couche revient sur la genèse et les suites de Katz en publiant MetaKatz, avec un disque vinyle en bonus. Metakatz est l'acte qui constituerait la "clôture" de Katz. Clôture, qui n'en serait pas une, d'un acte qui pose questions mais qui n'existe plus et ne peut plus exister, Katz ayant été détruit. Il s'agit de faire l'acte théorique et critique, autorisé celui-là, qui pérennisera ces questions importantes, celles qui ont été explicitement posées et les autres, tant sur le plan juridique qu'artistique. Metakatz revient sur l'histoire du droit d'auteur et de ses exceptions (parodie, citation, pastiche...), sur l'histoire de l'art du détournement, du collage et du sampling (ancienne comme l'art), et sur les nécessaires évolutions du droit et de la création à l'ère numérique.

Abstract

Between life and the art that imitates it is a vague, more shadowy category: images that exist autonomously. Pygmalion's mythical sculpture, which magnanimous gods endowed with life after he fell in love with it, marks perhaps the first such instance in Western art history of an image that exists on its own terms, rather than simply imitating something (or someone) else. In 'The Pygmalion Effect', Victor I. Stoichita delivers this living image& as well as its many avatars over the centuries& from the long shadow cast by art that merely replicates reality. Stoichita traces the reverberations of Ovid's founding myth from ancient times through the advent of cinema. Emphasizing its erotic origins, he locates echoes of this famous fable in everything from legendary incarnations of Helen of Troy to surrealist painting to photographs of both sculpture and people artfully posed to simulate statues. But it was only with the invention of moving pictures, Stoichita argues, that the modern age found a fitting embodiment of the Pygmalion story's influence. Concluding with an analysis of Alfred Hitchcock films that focuses on Kim Novak's double persona in 'Vertigo', 'The Pygmalion Effect' illuminates the fluctuating connections that link aesthetics, magic, and technical skill. In the process, it sheds new light on a mysterious world of living artifacts that, until now, has occupied a dark and little-understood realm in the history of Western image making.
