- Abstract
The article analyzes the visual representations on the armed conflict that privileged the newspapers El Tiempo and El Espectador during the period 2008-2016, as well as the relationships of these with the configuration of certain regimes of the gaze in the deployment of memories of the recent past in Colombia. For this purpose, a visual analysis methodology was employed that addressed the pre-iconographic, preiconographic and iconological levels of the selected corpus of photographs, in their relations with the alphabetical texts that accompany them. In the end, once the extrajudicial executions and forced disappearances were identified as predominant topics of the period, three types of representations were evidenced: the ambivalence between the shock and the routinization of horror; the adaptation of the gaze towards suffering as an anamnestic strategy of the establishment; and an iconographic turn towards the indexical and metonymic that contributes to the distribution of the sensitive, which contrasts with positions of apparent neutrality on the part of the examined newspapers.
