contents Impossible cartographies: approaching Raúl Ruiz’s cinema Michael Goddard Ciencias de la Información Cinema Raul Ruiz Raúl Ruiz (1931- 2011), while considered one of the world’s most significant filmmakers by several film critics, is yet to be the subject of any thorough academic engagement with his work in English. My book Impossible Cartographies sets out on this task by mapping, as fully as possible, Ruiz’s cinematic trajectory across more than five decades of prolific work ranging from his earliest work in Chile to high budget ‘European’ costume dramas culminating in the recent Mysteries of Lisbon (2010). It does this by treating Ruiz’s work, with its surrealist, magic realist, popular cultural and neo -Baroque sources, as a type of ‘impossible’ cinematic cartography, mapping real, imaginary and virtual spaces, and crossing between different cultural contexts, aesthetic strategies, and technical media. In argues that across the different phases of Ruiz’s work identified, there are key continuities such as the invention of singular cinematic images and the interrogation of their possible and impossible combinati ons. This article will present some of the key themes of Ruiz’s cinema and use ideas of virtual cartography, tableaux vivants and the neo- baroque to illuminate a range of Ruiz’s films from the Hypothesis of the Stolen Painting (1978) to Mysteries of Lisbon, his last major project. 2013 artículo científico 1807-8893 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=465645972003 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=4656 Em Questão application/pdf Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul Em Questão (Brasil) Num.1 Vol.19
