This book focuses on the remarkable series of encounters between the most prominent French philosophers of the 1960s and 1970s – Jean-Paul Sartre, Louis Althusser, Pierre Bourdieu, Gilles Deleuze, Michel Foucault, Félix Guattari, Jean-François Lyotard, Jacques Derrida – and the artists of their times, most particularly the protagonists of the Narrative Figuration movement – Bernard Rancillac, Lucio Fanti, Gérard Fromanger, Jacques Monory, Valerio Adami. Each of these encounters involved either a mutual engagement or the writing of criticaltexts or catalogue prefaces, and the texts that lie at the heart of each chapter illuminate not only the work of the artists but also the production of thephilosopher–writer concerned.
