Histórias de vida : la memória biográfica-narrativa en la obra de Miguel Romero

Abstract

This paper discusses how the Sevillian artist Miguel Romero (1971) explores the establishment of the truth in the limits of photographic technique. Through stories of life, real or fictitious, he proposes us to assume and build them by contextual empathy, the search of the common memory or the shared feeling that emerges within each of us. The text addresses how this artist embodies these biographical stories to make us rethink our own memories, play with the times. His series Show me your negatives (2012) is the main axis of the study, which is considered in turn in relation to works by other authors of similar invoice and theoreticians like Deleuze, Goddard or Bergson
