Abstract

Abstract:This essay analyzes aesthetic response in Leïla Sebbar’s Shérazade, using cognitive analyses of the sister arts and processes of visual perception to describe how ekphrasis enacts a drama of self-fashioning for an Algerian girl in a French museum. Sebbar’s rendering of Matisse’s Odalisque à la culotte rouge [Odalisque in Red Trousers] foregrounds the emulative and transformative aspects of imagery. Rather than casting Shérazade’s gaze as a purely oppositional one (a refusal of Orientalist fantasy), this essay shows how Sebbar’s heroine redeploys the painting as a charged space of cohered artistic vision that draws its power from the moving images produced by kinesis.

移动的视觉:马蒂斯的《Odalisques》，西巴的《shacimrazade》，以及作为仿真的意象

摘要:本文通过对姐妹艺术的认知分析和视觉感知过程的分析，分析了Leïla Sebbar的《shacimrazade》中的审美反应，描述了ekphrasis如何为法国博物馆中的阿尔及利亚女孩演绎了一出自我塑造的戏剧。西巴尔对马蒂斯的《穿红裤子的奥达里斯克》的渲染突出了意象的竞争性和变革性。这篇文章并没有将shacimrazade的凝视视为纯粹的对立(对东方主义幻想的拒绝)，而是展示了Sebbar的女主人公如何将这幅画重新部署为一个充满凝聚力的艺术视觉空间，从kineesis产生的运动图像中汲取力量。
