Ce second tome du quatrième volume rassemble trente-neuf textes de Lyotard qui concernent vingt-six artistes contemporains importants et novateurs : Luciano Berio, Richard Lindner, René Guiffrey, Gianfranco Baruchello, Henri Maccheroni, Riwan Tromeur, Albert Ayme, Manuel Casimiro, Ruth Francken, Barnett Newman, Jean-Luc Parant, François Lapouge, Sam Francis, André Dubreuil, Joseph Kosuth, Sarah Flohr, Lino Centi, Gigliola Fazzini, Bracha Lichtenberg Ettinger, Henri Martin, Michel Bouvet, Corinne Filippi, Stig Brøgger, François Rouan, Pierre Skira et Béatrice Casadesus. Plusieurs de ces textes sont des contributions à des catalogues dont certains sont inaccessibles ou introuvables. Ce volume est illustré par plus de soixante images, pour la plupart en couleur, d'oeuvres d'art commentées par Lyotard dans ces textes.

On comprend que Lyotard, au titre d'une esthétique de la présence matérielle, favorise la peinture. L'art de peindre, pour qu'il y ait présence, doit se rendre à ce rien qui vibre entre le vide et le plein, un air, un clinamen, un neutre, une nuance, un timbre.

This second book of the fourth volume in the series brings together thirty-nine essays by Lyotard that deal with twenty-seven influential and innovative contemporary artists: Luciano Berio, Richard Lindner, René Guiffrey, Gianfranco Baruchello, Henri Maccheroni, Riwan Tromeur, Albert Ayme, Manuel Casimiro, Ruth Francken, Barnett Newman, Jean-Luc Parant, François Lapouge, Sam Francis, André Dubreuil, Joseph Kosuth, Sarah Flohr, Lino Centi, Gigliola Fazzini, Bracha Lichtenberg Ettinger, Henri Martin, Michel Bouvet, Corinne Filippi, Stig Brøgger, François Rouan, Pierre Skira, and Béatrice Casadesus. Some of these texts were originally written as contributions to catalogues; others were published in now-inaccessible journals. This volume is illustrated with more than sixty images, mainly in colour, of works of art discussed by Lyotard in these writings.
