Francis Bacon; la deriva del yo y el desgarro de la carne. Francis Bacon; The Drift of I and the tear apart of the flesh

Abstract

This work looks for to give account of the aesthetic proposal of Francis Bacon. For it it centers his analysis in the problem of the obsessive representation of the human body with his aesthetic, biographicals and identitaryes implications. For Bacon, as it is, the body appears like a mutilated object that returns to the animality. In his painting the man suffers the tear apart flesh of the meat, that is interpreted like the end of the body and the symbolisms of the "flesh" like last place of I. With the iconographyc drift of the picture and its search of the existential recognition the faces are dissapeaned, separte the I and the bodies are disintegrate, in that fight by the fixedness, the stability never obtained that we found in works of Francis Bacon. Adesperate vision that enters in the territory of the decay and the alienation to us: the extasys, the desire of the flesh, the fluids, the detritus, the mutilation and the death that invade their fabrics.
