Resumo: | In this article we review some theoretical approaches tothe artistic proposal of Argentine theatre director Vivi Tellas, focusing on her documentary theatre project Archivos, an expression of her wider project Biodrama. We will look intodifferent aspects that define her particular way of working with the real materials her performances are based on, and we will consider the possible ethical and aesthetic implications of her work. Giorgio Agamben’s notion of witness will play a special role in this analysis, since it enables us to formulate a hypothesis about the kind of testimony given by theseordinary bodies as well as by the objects/documents Tellas brings to the stage. |

Nous analyserons les clés distinctives qui définissent sa manière particulière de travailler avec ces “matériels réels” avec lesquels elle construit ses spectacles, en réfléchissant aux possibles implications éthiques et esthétiques de ce travail. Les idéesde Giorgio Agamben autour de la notion de témoin seront très importantes pour cette réflexion, puisqu’elles nous permettront de formuler une hypothèse sur le type de témoignage qu’offrent les corps ordinaires et les objets/documents que Tellas porte à la scène.En este artículo recorreremos algunos enfoques teóricospara analizar la propuesta artística de la directora argentina Vivi Tellas materializada en su proyecto de teatro documental Archivos, el cual se enmarca dentro de su macro-proyecto Biodrama. Analizaremos distintas claves que definen su modo particular de trabajar con aquellos materiales reales con los que construye sus espectáculos, reflexionando sobre las posibles implicancias éticas y estéticas de este trabajo. Un lugar privilegiado tendrán en esta reflexión las ideas de Giorgio Agamben respecto principalmente de la noción de testigo, que nos permitirán acercarnos a una hipótesis sobre el tipo de testimonio que brindan los cuerpos – de personas comunes y corrientes – y también los objetos/documentos que Tellas lleva a escena.Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul2022-10-16info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/presenca/article/view/39202Brazilian Journal on Presence Studies; Vol. 3 No. 3 (2013): set./dez. 2013; 763-779Révue Brésilienne d'Études de la Présence; Vol. 3 No. 3 (2013): set./dez. 2013; 763-779Révue Brésilienne d'Études de la Présence; Vol. 3 No 3 (2013): set./dez. 2013; 763-779Revista Brasileira de Estudos da Presença; v. 3 n. 3 (2013): set./dez. 2013; 763-7792237-2660reponame:Revista Brasileira de Estudos da Presençainstname:Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS)instacron:UFRGSspahttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/presenca/article/view/39202/50866Copyright (c) 2022 Revista Brasileira de Estudos da Presençainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessBrownell (Universidad de Buenos Aires - Buenos Aires, Argentina), Pamela2022-10-16T21:15:59Zoai:seer.ufrgs.br:article/39202Revistahttp://seer.ufrgs.br/presencaPUBhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/presenca/oai||rev.presenca@gmail.com2237-26602237-2660opendoar:2022-10-16T21:15:59Revista Brasileira de Estudos da Presença - Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS)false |
