las prácticas artísticas contemporáneas se nutran de las complejidades del dolor y trauma ajenos, y sirvan como canal de expresión que las exprese y contenga. El ensayo explora la obra de tres artistas contemporáneos colombianos que hacen uso de elementos formales que indexan la experiencia de terceros como un recurso que está directamente referenciado en el discurso y es un componente central de la obra de estos artistas contemporáneos.

The valuable attempt to make the understanding of works of art widely accessible for television audiences seems incompatible with the fact that the private life promised to be revealed in the programs does not actually offer a more inclusive study of art history, nor does it treat the pieces as mere objects with an artistic value, but rather consists of a well elaborated continuation of the traditional, hierarchical, excluding, and empowering system of categorizing artworks with the much discussed label of masterpiece.
