The current readings of this photographic material, from experiences of reception, allowed the updating of historical perceptions through the oral testimony. In this way, we first explore how each ethnic group is represented and how these representations became visual memories of their communities. Furthermore, we search for correlations or contradictions between what the historical photographic narratives (re)presented, as references of visual memory, and what current receivers identifyo do not acknowledge as part of their identities and memories under construction, in a Province considered a melting pot by the political and cultural discourse. Este artículo propone un análisis de las representaciones visuales sobre indígenas e inmigrantes del Territorio Nacional del Chaco (Argentina), a partir de las huellas de enunciación y las narrativas visuales que se construyeron en/a través de la fotografía. Las lecturas actuales de ese corpus fotográfico, desde experiencias de recepción, permiten que el testimonio oral actualice las percepciones históricas. Con ello buscamos explorar, por un lado, cómo es representado cada grupo socio-étnico y de qué modo esas representaciones se convierten en memorias visuales de sus comunidades. Por el otro, procuramos indagar sobre las correspondencias y/o contradicciones entre lo que las narrativas fotográficas históricas (re)presentan, como referentes de memorias visuales, y lo que los receptores actuales identifican o (des)conocen, como parte de memorias identitarias en construcción, en una Provincia que desde eldiscurso político-cultural se busca mostrar como un crisol de razas. Este artigo propõe uma análise das representações visuais de povos indígenas e imigrantes do Território Nacional do Chaco (Argentina) a partir dos rastros de enunciação e narrativas visuais construídas na/através da fotografia. Leituras atuais deste corpus fotográfico, baseadas em experiências de recepção, permitem que o testemunho oral atualize percepções históricas. Buscamos explorar, por um lado, como cada grupo socioétnico é representado e como essas representações se tornam memórias visuais de suas comunidades. Por outro lado, buscamos investigar as correspondências e/ou contradições entre o que as narrativas fotográficas históricas (re)apresentam, como referentes de memórias visuais, e o que os receptores atuais identificam ou (des)reconhecem, como parte de memórias identitárias em construção, em uma província que, por meio do discurso político e cultural, busca retratar como um caldeirão cultural. application/pdf https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/MA/article/view/12175 spa Sección Etnohistoria, Instituto de Ciencias Antropológicas.
