URUENA, Juan Felipe. The Poetics of Ascent and Descent. A Montage of Two Variations of Images of Displacement in Colombia. Antipod. Rev. Antropol. Arqueol. [online]. 2018, n.33, pp.61-78. ISSN 1900-5407. https://doi.org/10.7440/antipoda33.2018.04.
The chronicles of the conquest, the stories of the explorers of the colony and the early republic, and forced displacement due to contemporary violence, have revealed an important relationship between violence and territory whose plastic incarnation is witnessed in a series of images that also represent the memory of the opprobrious facts pertaining to the Colombians' past history. In this article, we outline the possibility of accessing a sort of topographical or spatial dimension of memory through various images in which this relationship between territory and violence is patently revealed. In order to fulfill the purpose of the article, we will try to demonstrate how the way in which a compositional form such as the montage, characterized by the historiographic practice of Aby Warburg, can render account of the poetics of space that is expressed in some travelers’ images of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
