僭越与盲视——从福柯到拉斯·冯·提尔的视觉体制

Transgression and Blindness:From Foucault to Lars von Trier's Visual Regimes

面对视觉中心主义在当代社会造成的连续性和同质性困境,从凯卢瓦、巴塔耶到福柯的僭越哲学谱系为我们提供了一条可能的抵抗路径。“僭越”是指明一个构成事物内在规定性并且隐而不彰的极限,揭示这一极限就是打开一个由它所封闭的无规定性空间。遵循这一思路,视觉主义之极限亦是其自身中蕴藏的不可见性,它构成可见性的前提和基础。因此,指出“盲视”之体验及其反视觉的创造性,也是冯·提尔面对数字生成影像的一种批判性的回应策略。

Faced with the predicament of continuity and homogeneity caused by ocularcentrism in contemporary society,the genealogy of"transgression"from Caillois,Bataille to Foucault provides a potential path of resistance.Transgression signifies the intrinsic"limits"which is also the hidden rule and regulation of things and thereby opens up a deep space closed off by the limits.In this way,the limits regulating as well as dissolving ocularcentrism are the very invisibility inherent in itself,which forms the premise and foundation of visibility.Thus,pointing out the experience of"blindness"and its creativity with anti-visual features also becomes a critical strategy of Lars von Trier to response to the computer-generated images.
