The article aims at highlighting how, in the phototextual mise-enpage of Alix Cléo Roubaud’s and Francesca Woodman’s photoliterary works, it is possible to retrace a “poetics of the hiatus” which is measured in a dizzying gap between verbal and visual, ordinary words and literary words, past and future, first and third person narrative, representation and support. As for Francesca Woodman, we will focus on her artist’s books. As regards Alix Cléo Roubaud, her most famous series, Si quelque chose noir, will be investigated, together with other shots and her Journal, the latter being for a long time her only work available to the public. Furthermore, a reflection on a possible intermedial interpretation of the layout will be advanced starting from the short film Les Photos d’Alix, conceived by Alix Cléo Roubaud and Jean Eustache in 1980.

Abstract

The article aims at highlighting how, in the phototextual mise-enpage of Alix Cléo Roubaud’s and Francesca Woodman’s photoliterary works, it is possible to retrace a “poetics of the hiatus” which is measured in a dizzying gap between verbal and visual, ordinary words and literary words, past and future, first and third person narrative, representation and support. As for Francesca Woodman, we will focus on her artist’s books. As regards Alix Cléo Roubaud, her most famous series, Si quelque chose noir, will be investigated, together with other shots and her Journal, the latter being for a long time her only work available to the public. Furthermore, a reflection on a possible intermedial interpretation of the layout will be advanced starting from the short film Les Photos d’Alix, conceived by Alix Cléo Roubaud and Jean Eustache in 1980.
