About Book

Leaves, pleated skirts, wrinkles, paper balls, the earth... From the smallest particle to the largest universe, folds are everywhere. Unlike Leibniz's monads, Deleuze's folds are a combination of matter and soul, the smallest unit of the world. Through constant bending, folding, and unfolding, folds create the world. The Baroque style, with its emphasis on fluidity and movement, resonates perfectly with the constant folding and unfolding of folds. By analyzing Baroque paintings, clothing, sculpture, architecture, and music, Deleuze imbued the concept of folds with an artistic flair. By analyzing Leibniz's monads, Deleuze created a philosophy of folds that blends art, philosophy, and mathematics.
