“It’s all there. All, meaning life and death of forms, the inevitable – and unstoppable – dialectic of the forms and of the formlessness, greatly suggested by Baudelaire and his ‘living tatters’. Tatters, for the carcase’s living form is shredding, decomposing. Living, for the formlessness keeps on producing its own metamorphosis, its visual rising and descending heap, ‘like a wave’, soaring and sagging, living ‘by multiplication’, as animated by this paradoxical labour that is decomposition itself, its tedious swarming, its exuberance, its ‘rhythmic movement’. On the one hand, ‘the forms disappeared’. On the other hand, they reappear like something to be born, ‘a sketch that slowly falls’ on the canvas of some painter, attentive to the diseases of the visible. Something that is never quite complete, something that will only – and eventually – regain its figure through the elaboration of fantasy and ‘memory’.”Georges Didi-Huberman, Ninfa fluida: essai sur le drapé-désir, Paris, Gallimard, 2015, page 100https://www.ofluxo.net/ninfa-vincent-lo-brutto-at-chapelle-saint-jean-organized-by-aubes-and-curated-by-pablo-stahl/ -- source link
