Relato y emocionalidad en un museo policial Sirimarco, Mariana museo policial relato emocionalidad objetos palabras police museum story emotion objects words It is clear that a museum offers stories: turns what it is material into a cultural significant pattern. The same exercise carries out the Museum of Argentine Federal Police. The artifacts there stage discourses, experiences and values that allow police agency to think about itself as institution. This paper intends to analyze the construction of some of these stories, understanding them as narratives that imply not only political and social senses, but also ethic and moral ones. A story is not shaped by the aseptic description of an event, but by the transformation of it into a message. That is to say, by a narrative operation that carries emotional charge. Dismantling the emotionality of these stories implies, in the context of a museum, understanding them as plural records, where the semantics of an event entails diverse communicative modes. Which elements are selected to carry significant feelings? How these different records combine in producing emotion? And most of all: how the materiality of the artifact builds emotionality? How objects can move us? Es a todas luces claro que un museo brinda un relato: vuelve lo material en patrón cultural significativo. Idéntico ejercicio le cabe al Museo de la Policía Federal Argentina. Los artefactos que en él se despliegan ponen en escena discursos, vivencias y valorizaciones a partir de los cuales pensarse como institución. Este trabajo pretende bucear en la construcción de algunos de estos relatos, entendiéndolos como narrativas que no sólo involucran un universo de sentidos políticos y sociales, sino un universo ético y moral. Un relato no se conforma por la descripción aséptica de un evento, sino por la conversión de un acontecimiento en un mensaje. Esto es, por una narrativización que porta carga emocional. Desarmar estos relatos en su clave emotiva supone, en el contexto de un museo, prestar atención a su carácter de registros pluri-modales, donde la semantización de un evento interpela diversos modos comunicativos. ¿Qué elementos se seleccionan para comportar sentimientos significativos? ¿Cómo se vinculan, estos distintos registros, en la producción de la emotividad? Y sobre todo: ¿cómo se construye lo emotivo desde la materialidad de un artefacto? ¿Cómo logra conmover un objeto? Facultad de Filosofía y Humanidades.
