Summary:This article aims to gather elements so that art is thought as a place of both individual and collective memory. It investigates the subjective feature of memory, which leads the artist to add his desires, fears, fantasies and beliefs to these memories.

To defend this concept, the article has been based on some works of art made by Frida Kahlo, Pavel Egüez and Ana Maria Pacheco.
