Resumo: | The aim of this text is to explore the impact of the idea of archive in contemporary art. In “Archive Fever” Jacques Derrida explores the double sense of the etymological root of the word archive, which means both origin and command or Power of an authority. As the notion of archive is directly related to memory, personal and historical, the author reveals the relation of archive and power, arguing that there is a constant tension between maintenance and repression (conscious or unconscious) of memory. The archive fever would be associated with the death drive, loss of memory, which would have psychic, social and political consequences. Taking on account this approach, the idea of archive is identified as a central procedure in contemporary art practice. Many artists develop projects around notions of falsification of archives; appropriate and manipulate historical archive material; or use scientific methodology in their poetical processes, creating fictional archives and strange taxonomies. |

Parte-se da perspectiva de Jacques Derrida sobre o conceito de arquivo, em “Mal de Arquivo – Uma impressão freudiana”, no qual Derrida explora o duplo sentido da raiz da palavra arquivo, como origem e comando ou poder de uma autoridade. Ao relacionar a noção de arquivo com a memória (pessoal e histórica), o autor argumenta que há uma constante tensão entre a manutenção e repressão (consciente ou inconsciente) da memória. O mal de arquivo estaria ligado à pulsão de morte, ao apagamento da memória, cujas conseqüências podem ser psíquicas, sociais e políticas. Com esse entendimento, identificamos a idéia de arquivo como um procedimento central nas práticas artísticas contemporâneas. Diversos artistas desenvolvem projetos em torno de noções de falsificação de arquivos; partem da apropriação de arquivos históricos; ou incorporam metodologias científicas em seus processos poéticos, dando origem a arquivos fictícios e estranhas taxionomias.Universidade do Sul de Santa Catarina2009-12-22info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://portaldeperiodicos.animaeducacao.com.br/index.php/Critica_Cultural/article/view/14110.19177/rcc.v0e02009177-192Revista Crítica Cultural; Edição especial; 177-1921980-64931980-6493reponame:Crítica Cultural (Online)instname:Universidade do Sul de Santa Catarina (UNISUL)instacron:UNISULporhttps://portaldeperiodicos.animaeducacao.com.br/index.php/Critica_Cultural/article/view/141/155Macêdo, Silvanainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2016-09-30T19:49:17Zoai:portaldeperiodicos.animaeducacao.com.br:article/141Revistahttps://portaldeperiodicos.animaeducacao.com.br/index.php/Critica_CulturalPRIhttps://portaldeperiodicos.animaeducacao.com.br/index.php/Critica_Cultural/oairamayana.lira@gmail.com1980-64931980-6493opendoar:2016-09-30T19:49:17Crítica Cultural (Online) - Universidade do Sul de Santa Catarina (UNISUL)false |
