Reconceptualising the Deleuzian Artist: Intention in Art Practice
Niall Kennedy
This paper focuses almost entirely on Deleuze’s only book devoted
to the visual arts, Francis Bacon: The Logic of Sensation.
The question I set myself in the first half concerns the question
that led Deleuze to the development of the concept of the
“diagram”—in other words, how the artist succeeds in creating new
work while existing in an environment already saturated with “old�...
