摘要

在世界各地的许多史前遗址中出现的手印或手印,在岩石艺术的记载中占据了一个特殊的位置。尽管它们经常与绘画一起出现,但它们作为印记的索引地位导致它们与其他更容易被接受的表现形式分开对待。本文认为,底片手印是艺术定义的一种极限情况。我研究了它是如何引起包括乔治·巴塔耶、莫里斯·布朗肖和玛格丽特·杜拉斯在内的作家对创作的想象场景——我们可以称之为艺术的原始场景——的产生的。而其存在邀请我们思考的逻辑原点,跟踪连接我们的最早的人类祖先,我展示它如何能读对的逻辑存在通过一个特定的视角原始场景,想象的jean - luc南希。在这种解读中,恰恰是缺失或距离的问题赋予了手印作为原点的地位,从而消解了原点的概念。

‘La Main négative’: Limit-Case and Primal Scene of Art
Negative handprints or hand-stencils, which occur in many prehistoric sites around the world, occupy a particular place in accounts of rock art. Although they frequently occur alongside paintings, their indexical status as imprints leads them to be treated separately from other types of representations that are more easily accepted as such. This article argues that the negative handprint operates as a kind of limit-case for definitions of art. I examine how it has given rise to imagined scenarios of making — what we might call primal scenes of art — by writers including Georges Bataille, Maurice Blanchot and Marguerite Duras. While its logic of presence invites us to think about it as a point of origin, a trace that connects us to our earliest human ancestors, I show how it can be read against that logic of presence through the lens of one particular ‘primal scene’, that imagined by Jean-Luc Nancy. In this reading, it is precisely the question of absence or distance that gives the handprint its status as a point of origin that undoes the very idea of origins.
