Moving Visions: Matisse’s Odalisques, Sebbar’s Shérazade, and Imagery as Emulation
Abstract:This essay analyzes aesthetic response in Leïla Sebbar’s Shérazade, using cognitive analyses of the sister arts and processes of visual perception to describe how ekphrasis enacts a drama of self-fashioning for an Algerian girl in a French museum. Sebbar’s rendering of Matisse’s Odalisque à la culotte rouge [Odalisque in Red Trousers] foregrounds the emulative and transformative aspects of imagery. Rather than casting Shérazade’s gaze as a purely oppositional one (a refusal of Orientalist fantasy), this essay shows how Sebbar’s heroine redeploys the painting as a charged space of cohered artistic vision that draws its power from the moving images produced by kinesis.
