The archives of art in the pathosformeln of the networks and in the ruins of the collective

Abstract

The images that materialize through the experience of art, a place of acquired and shared experiences, have a diversity of processes that go down to demonstrate their chronotope, expressed in the suspension of linear time. The notion of Pathosformeln or "formula of emotions", which Carlo Ginzburg and George Didi-Huberman have recovered from Aby Warburg, is loaded with memory tests that are activated by emotion and by drama, in this field, images are key . Thus we will try to reflect in this text, with the help of images, on the relationship between memory and its physical files, taking into account the imaginary, which works in the instability of a time in ruins, when terror is presented in a statement of press that threatens the archives of the culture-world.
