This volume collects key and scarce writings about the making and apprehension of 'visual objects,' though the chief focus is on drawing, painting, and photography (with sorties into video and film). What preoccupied Derrida when it came to the visual arts is visibility: what does a pencil actually trace-make visible- when someone is making a drawing What aspect of the drawing documents the artist's thought and what part documents an external object What comes from painting other than a painting The writings collected range from essays originally published in small magazines and journals to never-before translated talks and interviews. There are 19 pieces in all, of which seven have been previously published in English. The rest have been translated into English for the first time. None is included in the Press's already substantial inventory of works by Derrida. The collection comprises three thematic sections: (1) 'The Traces of the Visible' is attuned to the field's preoccupation with the 'trace,' what is an 'image,' visibility, and space.

(3) 'Spectralities of the Image: Photography, Video, Cinema and Theatre' explores the media we most readily associate with modern and contemporary art practices'.…
