    Introduction to antiphilosophy.Boris Groys - 2012 - New York: Verso Books. Edited by David Fernbach.
    Philosophy is traditionally understood as the search for universal truths, and philosophers are supposed to transmit those truths beyond the limits of their own culture. But, today, we have become skeptical about the ability of an individual philosopher to engage in "universal thinking," so philosophy seems to capitulate in the face of cultural relativism. In Introduction to Antiphilosophy, Boris Groys argues that modern "antiphilosophy" does not pursue the universality of thought as its goal but proposes in its place the universality (...)

    Under Suspicion. A Phenomenology of Media.Boris Groys - 2012 - Columbia University Press.
    The public generally regards the media with suspicion and distrust. Therefore, the media's primary concern is to regain that trust through the production of sincerity. Advancing the field of media studies in a truly innovative way, Boris Groys focuses on the media's affect of sincerity and its manufacture of trust to appease skeptics. Groys identifies forms of media sincerity and its effect on politics, culture, society, and conceptions of the self. He relies on different philosophical writings thematizing the gaze of (...)

    Images de pensée.Boris Groys - 2005 - Multitudes 3 (3):149-158.
    Résumé L’artiste Peter Weibel s’inscrit dans un prolongement paradoxal des avant-gardes du vingtième siècle. Les institutions de l’art sont mortes? Il propose le devenir-institution des artistes. Le regardeur s’est émancipé? Il s’efforce de le contrôler. Les techniques traditionnelles sont périmées? Il recourt à l’art numérique, seul à même de figurer les processus de pensée.

    Ces dernières années, des musées d’art contemporain sont apparus partout dans le monde occidental et au-delà. Le nombre de ce genre de musées augmente en permanence. Le touriste d’aujourd’hui, qui se rend dans une grande ville, s’attend à y trouver un musée d’art contemporain, de la même manière qu’il s’attend à y trouver un restaurant italien ou un cinéma. Dans la plupart des cas, ces attentes sont confirmées. Dans le pire des cas, le touriste va apprendre que le musée d’art (...)

    This chapter explores media-ontological suspicion as a specific manifestation of philosophical doubt. It begins by discussing how the suspicion that something is hidden behind the visible and experienceable surface of the world that cannot be observed or described by humans and that might be threatening to them has determined the entire history of Western philosophical discourse. At least since Plato, philosophy has tried again and again to recognize and name what is hidden so as to overcome the fear of it. (...)

    The Border between Word and Image.Boris Groys - 2011 - Theory, Culture and Society 28 (2):94-108.
    Proceeding from Lessing’s distinction between poetry and visual art, Boris Groys argues that language is not external to, but resides behind, the image. The image constitutes the scene of a frustrated linguistic desire. Modern visual art sought to avoid the obscenity of staging this unfulfilled desire by conducting a systematic ascetic repression of the linguistic impulse. This negation of linguistic desire culminated in Judd’s ‘specific ob jects’. Y et the modern image, Groys emphasizes with reference to Greenberg and McLuhan, still (...)

    7. The Case of Exception and the Truth of the Medial.Boris Groys - 2012 - In Under Suspicion. A Phenomenology of Media. Columbia University Press. pp. 80-90.
    This chapter examines the case of exception and the truth of the medial. It begins with a discussion of different truth values that the signs on the surface of the media have: the truth of referentiality and the truth of submedial space. The truth of referentiality is scientific truth whereas medial truth concerns the truth of exception. The chapter proceeds by explaining how the truth of sincerity is lost through repetition and suggests that the truth of the submedial, of the (...)

    This chapter explores the imperceptible foundation of the play of signs that takes place on the medial surface. It begins by discussing submedial space as the space of suspicion as well as the space of subjectivity, suggesting that something invisible must be hidden behind the visible in the space beneath the medial surface. It then considers the poststructuralist philosophy of flux in relation to the problem of signification and how signification determines the relationship of the archive to the “reality” outside (...)

    2. The Truth of the Medial and the State of Exception.Boris Groys - 2012 - In Under Suspicion. A Phenomenology of Media. Columbia University Press. pp. 32-40.
    This chapter offers a philosophical reflection on the truth of the medial and the state of exception. It begins with the notion that every single media carrier—be it “natural” or produced by technical means—basically allows for only two operations with signs: to save and to transfer. The entire medial economy that operates with signs makes use of these two operations. All signs have a meaningless, nonsemantic, purely formal, and simultaneously material side beyond all signification. When we confront the media, we (...)
