Abstract

From the work of the writer Boris Pahor, Necropolis, it addresses the question of the testimony and is made research in the narration of the traumatic experience, the malaise of traditional models of representation. Through an interdisciplinary reading and considering the arts and critical reflections of thinkers such as: Jacques Derrida, Georges Didi-Huberman, Emmanuel Levinas, Walter Benjamin, inter alia, it is proposed an encounter that will allow that one more voice transmits others lines at the opening of thought to the arts, with the intention to understand the implications and tensions to narrate the trauma, between its impossibility and its necessity. For the purpose to establish dialogues and translations between thresholds of the image and literature, that allows to deepen the questions proposed, it addresses the work of the photographer Evgen Bavcar, from the exhibition titled: Une lumiere dificile, dedicated to his meeting with Boris Pahor and the sober picture of horror around the traces of the concentration camp Natzweiler-Struthof. So in front of the catastrophe's representation, it revalued book elements of the image and the magnetic dimensions of written. Finally, according to the proposals of some contemporary Colombian artists, it comes to thinking about the political and the poetic witness of violence, because the thought cannot be indifferent to the remains, ruins, traces, memories resistance, allowing happen traits, installations, requesting to learn to feel and to think otherwise, take on the fragility of the bodies exposed to excessive realities, disasters that seem impossible, but they are real (AU)
