Abstract Albert Camus was one of the most important writers of the last century. In this paper, one of the central subjects of his work it's analyzed: the need to preserve the original experience from the suffocating conceptualization and the distortion of reason. Camus's work represents a tireless effort to retain pictures and metaphors, as well as the persons and places where he belongs. Facing the strangeness of the distant thought, Camus raises the power of art as a place of memory. This article attempts to explore some of the most relevant concepts of his work. The intention is synoptic but not exhaustive. The absurd, the rebellion, the nuptials with the Mediterranean sun, are some of the issues that articulate his work. The treatment of the artist could help us keep an almost stubborn fidelity to those things which deserve to be protected.

Palabras clave : Preserve; experience; imperative; methodology; Camus.
