Museums, presences and handkerchiefs. From official memory to vital memory in two experiences

In this work we analyze the drifts that the use of memory has in the discourses inside the museum. In a first part, we describe the functions of the hegemonic museum as a representative of the nation-state and as a legitimizer of the absolute power of dictatorships and monolithic governments.

description In this work we analyze the drifts that the use of memory has in the discourses inside the museum. In a first part, we describe the functions of the hegemonic museum as a representative of the nation-state and as a legitimizer of the absolute power of dictatorships and monolithic governments. In a second part, we develop the turn of the museum-subordinate where memory - and especially vital memory articulated with the activism of social struggles - enables a shift towards the construction of new aesthetics and ways of making a story and a museum. It is from the emancipation of silenced voices -by deaths and disappearances- when their presences become roots, branches and fruits of a museum-memory that enables the questioning of old customs when building history. With a corpus of empirical elements we will introduce descriptive fields of two exhibitions that approach the subject from the symbolic action of objects and images in the face of pain and memory, on the one hand the "Museum of Memory and Human Rights" of Chile in his series “Presencias” of Graciela Sacco and on the other hand the “Museum of Memory" in Rosario, Argentina with the exhibition Legacies/scarves in struggle.That is where the relevance of the text is inscribed when it poses vital memory as an indispensable break for the construction of new ways of making a plural museum.

En este trabajo analizamos las derivas que tiene el uso de la memoria en los discursos al interior del museo. En una primera parte, describimos las funciones del museo-hegemónico como el símbolo del Estado-nación y como legitimador del poder absoluto de las dictaduras y los gobiernos monolíticos. En una segunda parte, desarrollamos el giro del museo-subalterno donde la memoria -y en especial la memoria vital articulada con el activismo de las luchas sociales- posibilita un viraje hacia la construcción de nuevas estéticas y modos de hacer relato y museo. Es desde la emancipación de las voces silenciadas -por las muertes y las desapariciones- cuando sus presencias se convierten en raíces, ramas y frutos de una memoria-museo que posibilita la interpelación de las viejas costumbres al construir la historia. Recurrimos a un corpus de elementos empíricos -campos descriptivos- de dos exposiciones que abordan el tema desde la acción simbólica de los objetos y las imágenes frente al dolor y a la memoria. Por un lado el Museo de la Memoria y los Derechos Humanos de Chile en su serie “Presencias” de Graciela Sacco y por otro el Museo de la Memoria en Rosario, Argentina con la muestra “Legados/pañuelos en lucha”. En esta articulación se inscribe la relevancia del texto cuando plantea a la memoria vital como un quiebre indispensable para la construcción de nuevas formas de hacer museo apelando a la pluralidad.  Neste trabalho analisamos as derivas que o uso da memória tem nos discursos dentro do museu. Em uma primeira parte, descrevemos as funções do museu hegemônico como representante do Estado-nação e como legitimador do poder absoluto das ditaduras e governos monolíticos. Em uma segunda parte, desenvolvemos a virada do museu-subordinado onde a memória – e principalmente a memória vital articulada com o ativismo das lutas sociais – possibilita um deslocamento para a construção de novas estéticas e formas de fazer uma história e um museu. É a partir da emancipação das vozes silenciadas -por mortes e desaparecimentos- quando suas presenças se tornam raízes, ramos e frutos de um museu-memória que possibilita o questionamento de velhos costumes na construção da história. Com um corpus de elementos empíricos apresentaremos campos descritivos de duas exposições que abordam o assunto a partir da ação simbólica de objetos e imagens diante da dor e da memória, por um lado o "Museu da Memória e Direitos Humanos" do Chile em sua série “Presencias” de Graciela Sacco e por outro lado o “Museu da Memória” em Rosário, Argentina com a exposição Legados/lenços em luta. pausa para a construção de novas formas de fazer um museu plural.
