This paper develops some «figures from the Orient» that appear in Deleuze and Guattari’s work: firstly, the hexagrams from the Book of Changes, as a limit case in the distinctions between thinking through figures and thinking through concepts, and between wisdom and philosophy; secondly, the «typically» oriental and occidental landscapes that populate A Thousand Plateaus and What Is Philosophy?; and lastly, the Chinese painter–poet as achiever of a becoming–imperceptible. The aim is to explore the conceptual resonances between these authors’ philosophy and oriental thought, especially regarding the articulation between ontology and ethics.
