Descargar Libro: Narratives Of Abandonment: Colombia S Cultural Production From 1990 To 2007

My analysis draws specifically from the novels La virgen de los sicarios by Fernando Vallejo, Rosario Tijeras by Jorge Franco, and their film adaptations, Satanas and Scorpio City by Mario Mendoza, Perder es cuestion de metodo and Vida feliz de un joven llamado Esteban by Santiago Gamboa, El olvido que seremos by Hector Abad Faciolince and Todo pasa pronto by Juan David Correa. I also bring into the discussion the installations by Colombian-born artist Doris Salcedo. Drawing on Salcedos artistic work, I address how residual bodies become present as absence in contemporary sculpture which, ultimately, points to their marginal condition. In addition, I address recent urban and historical transformations of Bogota, particularly in architectural structures such as the Palace of Justice and Parque Tercer Milenio. In this diverse corpus, I analyze the political and historical context in order to understand how residual bodies become part of the generalized recycling process of waste.
