[no title] Possibly 1976 - 2007

Editor: This untitled work by León Ferrari consists of two newspaper clippings. One reports on the reburial of murder victims, while the other screams "Kidnapped children still missing." It's a stark pairing. What symbols do you see emerging from this collage? Curator: The pairing is critical. Ferrari juxtaposes official narratives – the sanitized reburial "without incident" – with the raw, unresolved terror of disappeared children. The newspaper itself becomes a charged object, a carrier of cultural memory, a stark reminder of state-sponsored violence. Do you see how the mundane form of the news contrasts with the unbearable content? Editor: Yes, the everyday format amplifies the horror. I hadn’t considered that contrast. Curator: Exactly. Ferrari uses that tension to expose the psychological weight of living under authoritarian rule, where truth is fragmented and manipulated. Editor: This makes me think about how we process trauma through fragmented information. Thanks for helping me see this work in a new light.
