Abstract:
The lecture focuses on two artworks by two Colombian artists, the video installation "Project for a Memorial" (2002) by Oscar Munoz and the moving photographs "Novenarios abiding" (2012) by José Manuel Echavarría. Through moving images these artists create a suggestive narrative for the problem of memory and representation of violence in Colombia. the lecture will show how these works keep company to the silence left by the war and become, thanks to the discontinued temporalities and the intervals made possible by its moving narratives, a plea and a place for mourning.
Prof. Dr. María del Rosario Acosta Lopez, Phd Philospohy, is Professor at the Universidad de los Andes, Bogotá, Colombia, and currently a guest researcher, funded by the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation, in the Cluster of Exzcellence "The formation of normative Orders".
