Contexte / Hors contexte. Les limites de l’œuvre
Abstrak
Where is the limit? For some Colombians, narrating their traumatic experience of violence has become an act of resistance. This is how Colombian artists understand their artistic commitment and “intentions”. How can artists put into images, in the sense of representation, the un-representable (Rancière)? The role of the spectator then becomes the focus of the questioning: Who observes? Through a selection of works by three Colombian artists (Doris Salcedo, Oscar Muñoz and Erika Diettes), this article analyzes, first of all, the meaning(s) that a work takes on when it is conceived by the artist for both the spectator who is part of the same context and for the one who is completely decontextualized from it. Then, secondly, the way in which this same work, initially thought of in a more local and particular sense, can become more universal and globalized.
