This volume examines the blending of fact and fiction in a series of cultural artefacts by post-dictatorship writers and artists in Argentina, many of them children of disappeared or persecuted parents. Jordana Blejmar argues that these works, which emerged after the turn of the millennium, pay testament to a new cultural formation of memory characterised by the use of autofiction and playful aesthetics. She focuses on a range of practitioners, including Laura Alcoba, Lola Arias, Félix Bruzzone, Albertina Carri, María Giuffra, Victoria Grigera Dupuy, Mariana Eva Perez, Lucila Quieto, and Ernesto Semán, who look towards each other's works across boundaries of genre and register as part of the way they address the legacies of the 1976-1983 dictatorship. Approaching these works not as second-hand or adoptive memories but as memories in their own right, Blejmar invites us to recognise the subversive power of self-figuration, play and humour when dealing with trauma.

Juan Terranova propone un recorrido vital por la ciudad nocturna, una polis desfasada donde la política y la ideología del siglo XX todavía ejercen presión sobre la vida cotidiana del siglo XXI. A veinte años de la caída del muro de Berlín, inmigrantes rusos eligen Buenos Aires para escapar de las ruinas del comunismo. ¿Qué nos dejó la Guerra Fría? ¿Existe el estilo argentino-soviético? Un porteño y dos rusos discuten las marcas de la revolución: pornografía eslava, vodka con leche, rifles de aire comprimido y cangrejos asesinos. En Los amigos soviéticos, Juan Terranova propone un recorrido vital por la ciudad nocturna, una polis desfasada donde la política y la ideología del siglo XX todavía ejercen presión sobre la vida cotidiana del siglo XXI.

Multidisciplinary Perspectives on Genocide and Memory

  • Publisher: Springer

This book explores the memory and representation of genocide as they affect individuals, communities and families, and artistic representations. It brings together a variety of disciplines from public health to philosophy, anthropology to architecture, offering readers interdisciplinary and international insights into one of the most important challenges in the 21st century. The book begins by describing the definitions and concepts of genocide from historical and philosophical perspectives. Next, it reviews memories of genocide in bodies and in societies as well as genocide in memory through lives, mental health and transgenerational effects. The book also examines the ways genocide has affected artistic works. From poetry to film, photography to theatre, it explores a range of artistic approaches to help demonstrate the heterogeneity of representations. This book provides a comprehensive and wide-ranging assessment of the many ways genocide has been remembered and represented. It presents an ideal foundation for understanding genocide and possibly preventing it from occurring again.

Unos días en Córdoba

  • Categories: Art

El autor viaja a Córdoba con el fin de hacer una crónica de la muestra internacional de arte contemporáneo ¡AFUERA!, inaugurada en octubre del año 2010 en la capital provincial. En contacto permanente con artistas, curadores, gestores y periodistas, la voz del escritor reflexiona acerca del arte (y lo que se construye como "mundo del arte"), y de su rol en el mismo. "Porque finalmente eso es lo que soy, un crítico. No uno triste, ni el peor, ni uno de primera línea –tengo la coartada de la juventud, todavía–, pero si repartieran en Córdoba caretas con la profesión a mi me tocaría esa, la máscara del crítico. (Si esa máscara tiene los rasgos de un bufón serio, me consuela pensar que la del "periodista cultural" es mucho peor.) De repente me pongo nervioso. Son muchas obras, intervenciones, performances. No es posible que me guste todo, que encuentre todo interesante. Me recuesto en la idea de que voy a poder solapar, girar la mirada, apartarla. ¿Alcanzará con eso?"
