La littérature et les arts : paroles d’écrivain.e.s

A questionnaire sent by email, twenty artists and writers responded. An interrogation on what motivates the hybridization of artistic and literary practices today. This issue presents a look at the interweaving of the arts from the point of view of those who are its creators - cinema, photography, visual and digital arts, comics, performing arts, music, literature. Sandy Amerio, Nicole Caligaris, Thomas Clerc, François Emmanuel, Hélène Frédérick, Jérôme Game, Anne-Marie Garat, Christian Garcin, Max Geneva, Adrien Goetz, Gaëlle Josse, Valérie Mréjen, Emmanuelle Pireyre, Henri Raczymow, Mathieu Riboulet, Olivia Rosenthal, Pierre Senges, Jean-Philippe Toussaint, Benoît Vincent and Cécile Wajsbrot reveal the intimate relationship that is created between their writing work and other forms of artistic creation. This volume was developed with the aim of strengthening an ever closer dialogue between critics, artists and writers. Both literary questionnaire and field survey, the challenge of this book is to enter the creative workshops, to discover ways of doing on which theorists can sharpen their tools. Taken in two parts, the issue is composed of the answers gathered in four large groups and the presentation of the relationship between arts and literature in the works of each participant. An iconographic apparatus echoes their words and the critical course they create, forming an editorial object itself intermedial.
