At the intersection between the museum and the movie theater, a number of contemporary artists have been investigating the corporeality of analog images. In this new scene of the poetics of obsolescence, within the specific field of contemporary found footage avant-garde cinema, our object of study, the Austrian Peter Tscherkassky (1958-) occupies a prominent place. The thesis is written at the central injunction of three lines: i - The biography and critical fortune of the director; ii- the dialogue with a classical historiography and film theory; and iiithe ad hoc critical film analysis of his filmography. In an inflection with Georges Bataille s excessive anti-axiomatic and formless thought and, as well, into Walter Benjamin s idea of constellation, we seek to create a series of elective affinities that compose a network of authors that are fundamental to the thesis, namely: George Didi -Huberman, Mark Fisher, Rosalind Krauss, Jacques Derrida, Thomas Elseasser, Roland Barthes, among others. From a genealogical and extemporaneous re-elaboration of the filmic ruin, he operates a transgression of the mimesis and the conform similarity of the images, bringing to light the cursed part of cinematographic historiography. Instead of a classic indexical ontology, Tscherakassky takes us into the field of hauntology, in other words, the structural condition of cinema as specters.His work would be a genealogical attempt of re-enchantment with images of cinema that are today appeased by the control of narrative teleology and the representative regime. We conclude that the filmmaker s extemporaneous and anachronistic cinema are strong responses and symptoms of problematics of the contemporary cinema scene.
