Abstract

This article analyzes and approaches some artistic practices and productions related with the memories of violence not only at the level of representation but also as “works of memory” that deploy new languages, spaces temporalities and a(e)ffects of memories while nurturing the same recuperation and regeneration of meaning. Hence, this work can be defined as an approach to the time-image articulation; this is, what I am interested in is to analize how these artistic practices are opening spaces to reflect upon other temporalities, about memories in the Benjaminean sense of a ruin not articulated to decadence or “the past”, but on the contrary, as the simultaneous coexistence of times.

Keywords: memories of violence, artistic practices and cultural producers, sound and visual recollections, critical art, cultural critic, politics of translation
