L'immagine secondo Deleuze: Tre variazioni

The Image According to Deleuze. Three Variations This article proposes three variations on the notion of the image in Gilles Deleuze’s philosophy of cinema and painting. The first, the image-matter, explores the ontological status of the cinematic image as absolute becoming, a mobile section of duration, with reference to Bergson. The second, the image-eye, investigates the anti-dualistic conception of perception and the overcoming of the opposition between subject and object on the plane of immanence. The third, the image-catastrophe, examines the crisis of the sensory-motor schema in modern cinema and Deleuze’s description of the painterly act as the destruction of the figurative.
