Image extrême

Winter 2002

[In French] Dans ce dossier à auteur unique, Paul Ardenne propose une analytique de l’image : définir ce qu’est, au plus près, l’image « extrême »; penser, dans la foulée, le rapport du regard à ce type d’image; enfin, tenter de répondre à la question : pourquoi aspirons-nous, êtres de regard que nous sommes, à la brutalité de l’image « extrême » ?

Abstractions

Spring Summer 2025

Yet what about abstraction today? Long confined to formalist and self-referential imperatives, abstraction has gradually freed itself from the modernism yolk to recapture its evocative power. This issue proposes to turn away from the dogma of Abstraction as a historical genre to consider its various plastic and semantic avenues. In this invitation to explore abstractions, we wish to re-establish a dialogue between content and form, between the political and the poetic, by engaging with works that evoke reality differently. Whether they are qualified as abstract, non-figurative, or non-objective, these works certainly tell us stories.
