The influence of Roland Barthes on Burgin's work is well
documented. Equally, Burgin's prominence as an artist and theorist
concerned with text and image offers a productive dialogue with
Barthes' work. Victor Burgin has long been considered both theorist
and practitioner, while Barthes is more known as a theorist and
writer. In bringing to the fore Barthes's practice of painting and
drawing, Barthes/Burgin prompts a new critical consideration of
Barthes/Burgin, theory/practice, writing/making and
criticality/visuality. Barthes/Burgin features two new interviews
with Burgin, one concerned with his turn to new digital practices
and the other a reflection on his reading of Roland Barthes. Also
included are images and texts from the artists and an essay
critically examining Barthes' exercises in drawing and painting.
