Dividing Nothing: Jean-Luc Nancy, Painting, Sense and Creation

Summary/Abstract: This paper discusses Jean-Luc Nancy’s conception of painting. According to Nancy, painting could not be properly understood relying on phenomenological notions such as representation, appearing, disclosure, or giving. Instead, Nancy relates painting with the ontological notions such as world, sense, and creation ex nihilo. Nevertheless, this relation is not a kind of “deductive inference” of the notion of painting from notions of world, sense and creation ex nihilo, but the notion of painting is defined through the concept of fragment. Therefore, the attempt of the paper is to draw dividing and connecting lines between the notion of fragment and Nancy’s essays on painting.
