Summary:
Depuis la seconde moitié des années 1960, Victor Burgin développe une œuvre d'une rare exigence plastique autant que théorique. D'abord identifié comme l'un des acteurs majeurs de l'art conceptuel, Victor Burgin s'est employé, dans son travail articulant texte et photographie, à décoder les présupposés et les usages des images. Son œuvre fait fonds des médias de masse, du cinéma ou de la peinture aussi bien que de la littérature, de la sémiologie, de la psychanalyse ou des études culturelles. Dans les années 1990, la vidéo s'ajoute aux photo-textes et devient le médium privilégié de l'artiste. Si cet ouvrage offre une vision d'ensemble du parcours de Victor Burgin, c'est à cette pratique de vidéaste qu'il s'attache plus particulièrement. Rassemblant des écrits de l'artiste lui-même (pour la plupart inédits ou traduits pour la première fois en français), des essais critiques de Philippe Dubois, Evgenia Giannouri, Marianne Massin et Françoise Parfait, deux entretiens (l'un avec Homi Bhabha, datant de 1991, l'autre avec les étudiants du Master professionnel "Métiers et arts de l'exposition ", réalisé en 2007) et des notices consacrées à ses différentes vidéos, cette monographie propose une analyse approfondie de l'art de Victor Burgin et permet d'apprécier l'ampleur de ses enjeux esthétiques et politiques. C'est en effet une véritable politique de et par l'image qui se construit au fil de ses œuvres et de ses essais. Cet ouvrage documente enfin Fogliazzi, l'installation photo-vidéo que Victor Burgin a créée pour son exposition à la galerie Art & Essai de l'université Rennes 2 Haute-Bretagne (3 mai/15 juin 2007).

Summary:
Over a creative career of more than thirty years, Victor Burgin has established an international reputation as an artist and theoretician in the field of both moving and stationary images. Burgin became known in the late 1960s as one of the founders of Conceptual art. During the 1970s, his works consisted mainly of large-format photographic sequences that often involved text. At the beginning of the 1990s he turned to digital video art. This volume documents the many perspectives of the British artist’s reflections on Pompeii. Burgin created this series of images in 2006, while examining a nineteenth-century photograph of Pompeii from the collection of the Canadian Centre for Architecture in Montreal.

First published in 1986 and long out of print, Between charts Burgin’s passage from early conceptual art, via appropriationist works and critiques of mass media imagery to a series of photo-texts informed by psychoanalysis, semiotics, cinema studies and feminism. Interweaving Burgin’s visual work with fragments from interviews, talks and letters, the publication offers insights into the relation of ‘theory’ to ‘practice’ in a form of art which has undermined the basis of this distinction.

Summary:
Over the past thirty years, Victor Burgin has become both an influential artist and a renowned theorist of the still and moving image. His writings are noted for their lucidity, while his photographs and videos are paradoxical and question meaning in contemporary society. In this book, Victor Burgin retraces the history of his artistic and critical pursuits, from his conceptual photographic works of the sixties to his recent video work. He reviews the evolution of his visual work with a particular focus on its relationship to the institution and practices of painting, photography and cinema. This book is different from Burgin’s previous publications, which are either monographs of his visual work—with essays by other writers—or collections of his essays. This is the first book in which Burgin turns his attention to his own artistic production.
