| Summary: | The books published within the “sentiers de la création”, a book series released by the Genevan publisher Albert Skira and the French writer Gaëtan Picon, are singular because they were illustrated by the authors themselves. While some of the latter have made their own images (as Ionesco, Char or Michaux for instance), others submitted a list of pictures they had taken from other artists and other times. All of them interpreted Skira’s request very freely and the reader can sometimes notice a slight discrepancy between the image and the text. This article addresses the way the images associate with words to become, for the writers, a new and complementary medium to reflect on their own creation and represent it. It is based on the books written by J. M. G Le Clézio, Jean Tardieu, Octavio Paz, Claude Simon, Roland Barthes and Yves Bonnefoy. |
