The end of art, the contemporaneity, the origin of the archive.

ABSTRACT

This article is based on an articulation of the theoretical debates about the end of art, the contemporaneity, and the archive, to briefly point out how, in some experiences of art, the propositional force of these questions can be interpreted, albeit in a ciphered way. We emphasize the prevalence of these experiences for a critical and creative reinterpretation of history. In this way, art presents itself not as a reproduction or representation of history, but as its production or deferred presentation.
