The texts that make up this book propose open reflections based on a specific materiality: the Carmen Beuchat Archive (www.carmenbeuchat.org). This series of documents expose gestures of insistence and resistance around visual traces and residues, opening relationships between images and the record of works that no longer exist, appealing to the ephemerality of performative time, to the intrinsic materiality of the performing arts: the body in motion.
In these pages, we not only find the work of Carmen Beuchat, but also the answer to the question about how to make the archive's meanings explode.
