Apuntes mínimos sobre las interrupciones e intervenciones de Cairo Hilas, Sasha queer archive memory justice queer archivo memoria justicia The following article sets out to review some interventions made by the visual and audiovisual artist Cairo, in the city of Córdoba in 2019. These subtle gestures with which the public sphere intervenes are the living record of a queer / cuir life, its precariousness and performativity. It operates as a kind of archive of feelings (Ann Cvetkovich, 2018) that thinks and constructs time and territory, and reveals some modulations between politics and affections. In turn, these interventions represent an act of historical reparation (in Benjamin’s terms), insofar as they recover snippets of a queer/cuir life (especially those that do not fit in definitions and labels already elaborated), uniting with a tie a singular history and a collective history. Cairo's gesture as an artist is marked in turning queer lives part of an archive, rescuing them from possible oblivion and with it, returning to memory a form of justice. El siguiente artículo propone revisar algunas intervenciones realizadas por lx artista visual y audiovisual Cairo, en la ciudad de Córdoba en el año 2019. Estos sutiles gestos con los cuales interviene la esfera pública son el vivo registro de una vida queer/cuir, su precariedad y performatividad. Opera como una suerte de archivo de sentimientos ( Cvetkovich, 2018) que piensa y construye el tiempo y el territorio, y pone de manifiesto algunas modulaciones entre política y afectos. A su vez, estas intervenciones suponen un acto de reparación histórico (en términos benjaminianos), en la medida en la que recuperan retazos de una vida queer/cuir (sobre todo aquellas que no encajan en definiciones y etiquetas ya elaboradas), uniendo con un lazo una historia singular y una historia colectiva. El gesto de Cairo como artista está signado en volver las vidas queer parte de un archivo, rescatándolas del posible olvido y con ello, volviendo a la memoria una forma de justicia.  Centro de Producción e Investigación en Artes, Facultad de Artes, Universidad Nacional de Córdoba. 2020-09-01 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Double-blind peer-reviewed article Artículo revisado por sistema de pares doble ciego application/pdf text/html application/epub+zip https://revistas.unc.edu.ar/index.php/ART/article/view/30030 10.55443/artilugio.n6.2020.30030 ark:/s2408462x/m05ervaao Artilugio; No. 6 (2020): Archive and Memory; 113-125 Artilugio; Núm. 6 (2020): Archivo y Memoria; 113-125 Artilugio; n. 6 (2020): Archivo y Memoria; 113-125 2408-462X 10.55443/artilugio.n6.2020 ark:/s2408462x/u7erw86zt spa https://revistas.unc.edu.ar/index.php/ART/article/view/30030/30932 https://revistas.unc.edu.ar/index.php/ART/article/view/30030/30789 https://revistas.unc.edu.ar/index.php/ART/article/view/30030/30933 Derechos de autor 2020 Sasha Hilas https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0
