Georges Didi-Huberman is a philosopher of images whose work is
overdue for attention from English-language readers. Since the
publication of his first book in 1982, he has published 46 essays,
mostly with the prestigious Editions de Minuit, on topics ranging
from monographs on individual artists to critical excursions into
political philosophy. He is recognised in France and elsewhere in
Europe as one of the foremost philosophers of the image writing
today. In Georges Didi-Huberman and Film, Alison Smith concentrates
on how Didi-Huberman's work has been informed by cinema, especially
in his major (and ongoing) recent work L'Oeil de l'Histoire (The
Eye of History). The book traces the development of Didi-Huberman's
visual thought towards a cinematic sensibility already inherent in
his early work on images in relationship to each other. After
exploring his increasingly political understanding of the vital
role of cinematic montage, it traces his growing understanding of
cinema as a medium for expressing a dynamic representation of
peoples' memory and experience, and documents his engagement with
contemporary filmmakers such as Laura Waddington and Vincent
Dieutre.
