Pratique artistique et prise en charge de la mémoire : Sofiane Zouggar, artiste et archiviste

Abstract

It is by the common vantage point of archives and art that the Algerian artist Sofiane Zouggar tackles questions of images and violence during the 1990s. This article explores the different facets of his on-going project Memory of Violence by questioning the artist’s gesture of archiving in its specificity but also its proximity to that of the researcher.
