L'ombre n'a pas d'autre definition que l'absence de lumiere - mais la representation de l'ombre commence lorsque cette absence devient contradiction. Il existe une longue tradition qui fait de l'ombre projetee des etres humains un autre etre, qui les menace sourdement; l'ombre est aussi une qualite de l'espace ou nous demeurons: un environnement, un milieu, qui a lui aussi son heritage intellectuel, artistique, culturel. Le cinema, en tant qu'art d'image, a reconnu et utilise l'un et l'autre de ces pouvoirs suggestifs de l'ombre, dans des genres et des epoques qu'on a souvent qualifies de noirs . Qui plus est, la situation cinematographique inverse la situation ordinaire, ou l'ombre n'existe qu'en fonction de la lumiere: au cinema, c'est la lumiere qui a besoin d'ombre - celle de la salle - pour exister. On a presque toujours pense le cinema comme un art de la lumiere. Le prendre sous le signe de l'ombre est un defi, et un paradoxe. Dans ses cent et quelques annees d'existence le cinema a ete, dans ses rapports avec l'ombre comme dans tous les domaines du figuratif, la releve imaginative de pratiques culturelles plus anciennes. Mais sa relation avec l'ombre est autrement plus profonde et ne s'epuise pas dans l'heritage: elle a, pour cet art complexe, jouant du visible et du visuel a la fois, une valeur litteralement constitutive. L'ombre y est - telle est la these de ce bref essai - tres exactement la cause des figures. Le cinema a ete, tres largement, un art de l'ombre, et peut-etre bien l'art de l'ombre par excellence.
