English summary: English summary: Alain Bonfand, using the revisited tools of phenomenology, explores an unexpected contrast. Paul Klee on the one hand, an artist stigmatized as early as 1933 whose work at that time was characterized by anguish. He aptly contrasts him with Mario Sironi, the sycophant of fascism, although his painted work belies such a commitment. By opposing these two artists, the author brings to life the primacy of anguish and melancholy in these dark years. French description: Avant d'entrer en philosophie, Alain Bonfand est d'abord historien. La reside l'originalite de sa demarche phenomenologique. L'ombre de la nuit en est une demonstration singuliere. Alain Bonfand, usant d'outils revisites de la phenomenologie, explore un contraste inattendu. Paul Klee d'une part, artiste stigmatise des 1933 dont l'oeuvre a cette date est detourne par l'angoisse (motif explore dans L'oeil en trop). Il lui oppose avec pertinence Mario Sironi, thuriferaire du fascisme alors que son oeuvre peint, visite par l'ennui des profondeurs, dement un tel engagement. L'auteur fait vivre, en opposant ces deux artistes, le primat de l'angoisse et de la melancolie en ces annees noires. (J. Lichtenstein)
