On Complexity / Exploring the Enigmatic in Art
Summary: In modernity, the word "hermetic" is generally used to designate certain poetic works (those of Hopkins, Mallarmé or Celan, for example), while the question of the complexity, obscurity or unintelligibility of art is only raised in relation to literature. In truth, however, the problem of the hermetic in art is equally present in music, in painting, in cinema, and so on.
