Recenzii
Through a series of intriguing examples from literature, cinema, and contemporary arts, Jirsa's book takes readers on a delightful cross-disciplinary journey into affectively driven generative deformations. Passionate and erudite, Disformations's claim about the performative force of affects will be much debated in the contemporary media theory.
In this astonishingly inventive and wide-ranging book, Jirsa expertly traverses the domains of literature, painting, cinema, and video art for figures that push the formal limits of representation-the face destroyed by war, wallpaper patterns, the garbage dump, the empty chair-and thus reveal the dynamic force of affect at work in the secret heart of all formation. Arriving in the turbulent wake of the so-called affective and formal turns, Jirsa's media-philosophical concept of disformation brilliantly shows us a new way through the all-too familiar impasses of both. This book should be read by anyone interested in thinking deeply about the affective operations of form in our contemporary mediated moment.
The central project of Disformations: Affects, Media, Literature is to reactivate the vital question of the affective operations of aesthetic objects. Through close readings of a range of fascinating figures-from empty chairs to wallpaper patterns-Jirsa insists on treating representational limits neither as ineffable nor as deficient, but instead as generative processes that expose the speculative potential of disturbances to form.
Disformations is admirable for its erudite close readings and unexpected comparisons that illuminate one another in a manner likely to engage both specialized and nonspecialized readers with different degrees of familiarity with literary and media studies, art history, and cinema.
