Cartografias do invisível : para uma redefinição da serigrafia como meio operativo : a dissimulação da repetição

This dissertation searches for new possibilities into the way of operating with screen printing, as well as its importance in the context of the operational methods of the visual arts, based on a personal project of painting. To this end, we resource to the mapping and the linear drawings of city maps as a way to reflect upon its use in contemporary art. Also, we establish a connection between the way these cities organize themselves and the theories of the rhizome by Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari; the cartography and the grids of Rosalind Krauss, with the artistic aim to build screen printing matrixes; and also the function in gesture of making ‘printings’ with the conjectures of Didi-Huberman. We investigate also the consequences of a mode of doing by resourcing to screen printing with respect to the construction of visual metaphors in painting

Poétique de la ville postmoderne : Montréal dans La canicule des pauvres de Jean-Simon DesRochers

La canicule des pauvres (2009) raconte dans le détail la vie quotidienne de vingt-six personnages habitant Le Galant, une ancienne maison de passe transformée en un immeuble locatif situé à Montréal, au cœur du Quartier latin. Cette étude prend acte du fait que ce roman choral dresse un portrait particulier et complexe de la ville. Les questions qu’elle se pose sont de cet ordre : qu’est-ce que cette représentation de Montréal nous apprend de la société québécoise actuelle ? que devient la civilisation urbaine — l’urbanité, au sens ancien du terme — dans le monde de La canicule des pauvres ? comment l’écriture de DesRochers travaille-t-elle les représentations habituelles de la ville, que celles-ci proviennent de l’imaginaire social contemporain ou de la littérature passée ? existe-t-il telle chose qu’une postmodernité montréalaise ? S’inspirant des principes de la sociocritique des textes, la lecture proposée postule que c’est dans la forme même du texte que peut se comprendre le complexe de sens lié à la représentation de Montréal élaborée par le roman. Par les images qu’il en donne, par les modes d’énonciation et de narration, par la façon d’unir l’efficacité des brefs chapitres et l’ampleur de la vision romanesque, par les multiples récits de vie décrits et leurs entrecroisements, le roman donne à lire une ville devenue par bien des côtés étrangère et opaque à ses propres habitants. L’étude comprend quatre parties qui examinent respectivement les principaux traits de la mise en texte, la fragmentation du récit, le motif récurrent du smog et la façon de présenter les relations interindividuelles. Au bout du chemin, la ville apparaît paradoxale, vivante certes, mais sans proposer une manière cohérente et émancipatrice du vivre ensemble.
