'Kak Satar': a militant visual archive of Kurdish resistance

Résumé

This paper will touch upon the making of a militant archive that documents theKurdish struggles in Iran in 1979-90. The history of Faithi Setar’s visual archiveand its rich content introduces us to lived experiences of state violence andresistance within the frame of the Komala (communist) Party of Iranian Kurdistan.It is also a place for understanding and exploring the relationship and tensionsbetween individual and collective memories, written and visual histories, paperand digital documentation processes, and archiving as a practice of resistance. The presentation of Faithi Setar’s archive allows to question further the notion of"archival activism" and examine the making of transnational counter-archives of violence.
