This paper issues the presentation of a Literature case as a space of creation, cooperation/collaboration and innovation, focusing in the singular and original novel Le Temps Découpé, production that joins the works of the Belgian artist Thierry Renard to the texts of Michel Butor. Through the multiplicity and richness presented in this four hands writing, the reader should not only act the final role as a simple consumer, but he must act like a producer. This text constitutes in its own way a subject of reflection about the relation between the writer-philosopher Butor and the reader/co-producer. Finally it will be analyzed that Butor novel assumes a profound and violent interrogation of the concepts of Art and Literature, because it refuses the immediate communication and transgresses the traditional disposition of a book, specially in its relations, in a innovation way, with other artistic spaces.
