Beskrivning
Focused on French cultural responses to the 2008 global financial crisis in cinema, literature and theory, Derivative Images offers detailed analyses of post-2008 French-language works, including Les Effondrés (2010), Le Grand Retournement (2013) and L'Outsider (2016), to show how they appropriate and reconfigure notions at the heart of the crisis, such as derivatives, financial trading and markets.Drawing on ideas from thinkers such as Jonathan Beller, Yves Citton and Peter Szendy, this book shows how derivatives can be taken as a conceptual resource for thinking about creative practice and the circulation of audio-visual images today.

Recensioner i media

If finance has become the interdisciplinary object above all others, then Calum Watt’s splendidly original book offers the reader an exemplary route through the points at which financial derivatives and artistic creation meet. Derivative images - in film, literature, theatre, and philosophy - allow us to reimagine effectively our post-crash world.
