Peu de notions esthétiques auront fait l'objet de prises de position aussi négatives que celles suscitées par le décoratif. S'adossant aux ruines des notions de bienséance et de convenance héritées de l'âge classique, ce concept acquiert son identité à la faveur de la formation des utopies modernistes antidécoratives d'inspiration architecturale. Ni ornement ni décor, le décoratif est un concept parasite dont la reconnaissance spécifie moins une configuration des choses qu'il ne signale l'émergence d'un fantasme lié aux trois périphéries du social (acteurs illégitimes de la culture), du sexe (femme), de l'exotique (le sauvage). De Kant à Mendini, l'équivoque décorative redouble et fragilise les certitudes du visible.

About the Author:
Jacques Soulillou has developed an original theory of the decorative in his two works, Le Decoratif (Klincksieck, 2000) and Le livre de l'ornement et de la guerre (Parentheses, 2003). He also authored L'Impunite de l'art (Seuil, 1998), which examines the bases of the issue of art's penal autonomy in the modern age. He has translated from German works by Gottfried Semper and Heiner Muhlmann and, from English, Joseph Masheck, the author of Paradigme du tapis [English title: The Carpet Paradigm: Integral Flatness from Decorative to Fine Art]. Currently, he is a cultural attache in South Korea. His latest work, Esthetiques du deplacement has just been published by Semiose editions (2015). Philosopher and Germanist Marc Jimenez is an instructor at Universite de Paris I (Pantheon-Sorbonne). He teaches Aesthetics at UFR d'Arts plastiques et Sciences de l'art (a French plastic arts and sciences teaching and research institute) where he is the Head of the Centre de Recherches en Esthetique theorique et appliquee (Theoretical and Applied Aesthetics Research Center).
