Summary: | We pursued the project of artist Roman Opalka through evidences of his creative process which is accomplished on numerically tagged paintings and daily photographs of his own face. This article focuses Opalka’s (1965/1-”) canvases and pictures as an expression of time as a procedural, flowing and irreversible element, by differentiating it of the cross time (mémoire invonlontaire) as suggested in Marcel Proust. Each painting or photograph in his artwork correspond to a chronologically counted time, repeated, persistent, and not open to occasional stops. <p><p>Perseguimos o projeto do artista Roman Opalka por meio dos indícios de seu processo de criação, que se materializa em telas numericamente pintadas e fotografias diárias do seu rosto. Este artigo destaca a obra Opalka (1965/1-”) como expressão do tempo de caráter processual, contínuo e irreversível, diferenciando-a do tempo entrecruzado (mémoire involontairet), evidenciado por Marcel Proust. Cada quadro ou fotografia da obra corresponde ao tempo cronologicamente contado, repetido, persistente, e não favorável às interrupções ocasionais. |
