2017. EXCURSIONS ON REPEAT: a reflection on a work in engraving and some considerations on modern art

ABSTRACT

This monograph studies the distinction posed by Gilles Deleuze between generality and repetition and the implications of this distinction for the idea of representation and for a thinking about the difference and its consequences in modern and contemporary art. It utilizes these concepts, besides a comparative analysis with the poetic method of Francis Ponge, as tools to think over a practical experience developped in the Metal engraving ateliers’ and that resulted in a proposal of a work. 

Palavras-chave: print, copy, repetition, representation, Metal engraving.
