Frases de Isidore Isou

Isidore Isou fue un artista rumano. Lector ávido, precozmente apasionado por las obras de los grandes autores de la literatura y la filosofía. Fue en una de sus lecturas que, en una frase de Hermann Graf Keyserling , un error de traducción le hizo confundir vocablo con vocal, y entendió, en su lengua rumana, que el poeta dilata las vocales. Esto le inspiró para escribir su manifiesto letrista. Su obra cinematográfica cuenta con una veintena de películas mientras que su obra plástica figura en importantes colecciones, aunque nunca ha sido objeto de una gran retrospectiva. Obtuvo la nacionalidad francesa en la década de 1980, falleciendo en París en 2007.[1]​ Wikipedia

“From the point of view of photography, I'll smite the picture with sun rays. I'll take old stock shots and scratch them; I'll claw at them so that unknown beauty sees the light of day. I shall sculpt flowers upon the film stock.”

Venom and Eternity (1951), Danielle's Monologue

“In my pictures I would use speech as an extra dimension supplementing the image … Speech would not come off the screen in coincidence with the sequences, but from without, as if it were a surplus unconnected with the organism - a cravat of drivel hung on an ivory tooth.”

Venom and Eternity (1951), Danielle's Monologue

“The rigidity of forms impedes their transmission.
These words are so heavy that the flow fails to carry
them. Temperaments die before arriving at the goal
(firing blanks).
No word is capable of carrying the impulses one
wants to send with it.”

Venom and Eternity (1951), Danielle's Monologue

“Our only means of original manifestation is to vomit these old masterpieces. Masterful spittle is our only opportunity to create within the Cinema our masterpieces. That's what Picasso stands for. He is a creator of deglutition and spittle, of old well-digested canvases.”

Venom and Eternity (1951), Danielle's Monologue

“Your hissing and your booing make no impression on me, because from Victor Hugo's "Ernani" to Buñel's "The Age of Gold," Cannes Grand Prize winner, everything I have loved has always been hissed and booed at first. At the premiere of "The Age of Gold" the angry audience broke the theatre seats. What worse can happen to me, and how can that affect me? The seats do not belong to me.”

Panic I.
Manifesto Of Letterist Poetry, 1942
