Gesticulation is often considered a degraded version of gesture, to which modernity would be condemned. Or, it is a ridiculous version of it that clowns use to mock human pretensions. None of this in The Circus. The gesticulation does not testify to a failure, and moreover the movie is not interested in causes or intentions. It highlights what happens through gesticulation, the defeat of the order of the world, and what it allows: surviving the catastrophe. lun., 13 mai 2024 15:16:59 +0200 lun., 13 mai 2024 15:33:30 +0200 https://www.peren-revues.fr/revue-k/1325 https://www.peren-revues.fr/revue-k/379 The purpose of this paper is to explore the deep bond that intervenes between the figure of Marilyn Monroe and Guy Debord’s “society of the spectacle”, in which reality is annihilated and replaced by phantasmatic representations. I will first try to synthesize the current status of the image, to understand how deeply Marilyn penetrated the optical unconscious and the collective imaginary, relating her to the main debordian concepts. Secondly, I will propose some alternative images, different visions of Marilyn, in the attempt to restore her beauty crumbled by the spectacle. jeu., 30 nov. 2023 09:46:05 +0100 mar., 13 févr. 2024 09:18:23 +0100 https://www.peren-revues.fr/revue-k/379
