Distinktion: Scandinavian Journal of Social Theory | 2004
Eric Alliez
In an effort to reverse the “standard” presentation of the relations between Durkheim and Tarde from the point of view of the birth of the human sciences (“scientific morality” versus the “psychologistic” tradition), this article attempts to understand the primary importance that Gilles Deleuze has ascribed to the “philosophy of Gabriel Tarde” ever since Différence et répétition.
Cultural Politics: An International Journal | 2007
Eric Alliez
Subsequent to a dialogue concerning the German philosopher Peter Sloterdijk’s Regeln fur den Menschenpark (“Rules for the Human Park”), the following interview with Eric Alliez introduces the reader to Sloterdijk’s appreciation of contemporary cultural politics. However, the focal points of the interview are Sloterdijk’s core cultural conception of Nietzschean-inflected thought and his own Sphere Theory, his ideas on immunization, notions of ecology, “anthropotechnics,” and the question of Being. As these central themes of Sloterdijk’s current work and the title of this interview indicate, Sloterdijk’s belief in “living hot, thinking coldly” is also considered by Alliez alongside Sloterdijk’s contribution to cultural and political theory.
Journal of Visual Culture | 2016

‘Nobody could construct buildings the way Gordon destructed them’, we read in the issue of Flash Art published shortly after the artist’s death. In this article the author sets out from the at once physical and social violence of Gordon Matta-Clark’s interventions (their ‘cleanlined brutality’) so as to introduce the relation – and to introduce the negation in the relation – between Matta-Clark and the architects whom he places ‘at opposite ends of the pole’ from his own anarchitectural operation. But Matta-Clark proposes not so much an alternative usage of the enclosure of space as the diagram of a new spatial enunciation which, as the author tries to show, sheds new light on the very terms in which the question of art was posed at the end of the 1960s.

Leviathan Toth, la contre-“installation” que Ernesto Neto a suspendue aux voutes du Pantheon a l’automne 2006 n’exploite pas l’espace de ce lieu de memoire national pour s’exposer («art environnemental»). Il affronte toutes ses coordonnees physiques, esthetiques, politiques, metaphysiques, pour s’en prendre a l’Art de la representation dont le frontispice du Leviathan montrait, au dire meme de Hobbes, le role constitutif-constitutionnel pour la Republique. Mettant en scene une maniere de Critique et Clinique de la Representation dans toutes les acceptions du terme a partir du court-circuit (qui est aussi le circuit le plus court) entre politique et esthetique, l’Operation-Neto vise a la des-organisation expansive de la multitude vivant sous le regime «democratique» de la representation contractuelle dont le Pantheon est le temple. Elle donne corps a la perversion rhizomatique-bioenergetique de l’Image de l’Etat-Machine, de la Forme-Etat, en projetant un nouveau type de realite, infra- et supra-organique, qui tire son «energie» des forces de la multitudo dissoluta (Hobbes) dont elle propose une radicale re-composition vitale. Cette œuvre/non-œuvre qui releve d’un constructivisme politico-esthetique bresilien que l’on s’attache a redefinir, ne peut des lors faire l’«objet» que d’une pratique de deplacement incorporante et constituante du spectateur-participant.
Multitudes | 2005

En 1931, Matisse entreprend a la Barnes Foundation un tres grand panneau decoratif intitule La Danse dont les enjeux sont considerables puisqu’il y va d’une disqualification de la Forme-peinture et du Genre-Dessin au profit d’un art environnemental anime par un vitalisme decoratif qui redefinit en profondeur - au-dela de la question de la site specificity - la fonction-architecture tout court.

Entre Do It Yourself et lecon d’anatomie politique, les dessins « politiquement incorrects » d’Erwin Wurm egrenent les sculptures d’un temps present hallucine par un Buster Keaton post-post-minimaliste. Sculpteur d’un corps outlandish et autrichien : il n’est pas interdit de penser aux deux quand on regarde ces dessins executes pour Multitudes et la photographie qui les accompagne.
