Inquiries into the Artistry of 'Casitas' Offerings at the Sanctuary of the Deceased Correa (San Juan, Argentina) Exvotos: símbolos artísticos del hacer popular contemporáneo. Disquisiciones sobre la artisticidad de las ofrendas casitas en el santuario Difunta Correa (San Juan, Argentina) Cotignola, Ana Laura Belén, Paola Sabrina exvoto popular contemporáneo arte In this article, we present findings from an ongoing research project that aims to investigate the artistic status of a popular, collective, and contemporary practice known as 'exvoto': a conglomerate of offerings, small houses/models located in the Difunta Correa sanctuary (Vallecito, San Juan). We believe that these popular objects, as visual images, deserve the attention and analysis of the History of Visual Arts. However, the artistic/poetic approach to these pieces reveals the absence and/or categorical limitations recognized by canonical aesthetic theory. Therefore, our approach involves a critical review of traditional theoretical concepts, the inclusion of Latin American aesthetic perspectives, and the deepening of the conceptual boundaries of reflection. In this regard, this paper focuses on the last of the aforementioned axes and analyzes the case through the theoretical frameworks developed by the philosopher Nelson Goodman (2010, 1990) that deal with the possible modes of artistic functioning. En este artículo se recuperan avances de una investigación en desarrollo que procura indagar sobre el estatuto artístico de una práctica popular, colectiva y contemporánea reconocida como exvoto: un conglomerado de ofrendas –casitas/maquetas– situadas en el santuario Difunta Correa (Vallecito, San Juan). Consideramos que estos objetos populares, en tanto imágenes visuales, merecen la atención y análisis por parte de la historia de las artes visuales. Sin embargo, el abordaje plástico/poético de estas piezas evidencia la carencia y/o limitaciones categoriales contempladas por la teoría estética canónica, por lo que nuestra aproximación implica la revisión crítica de conceptos teóricos consagrados académicamente, la inclusión de posicionamientos estéticos latinoamericanos y la profundización de los límites conceptuales de la reflexión. En tal sentido, el presente escrito se enfoca en el último de los ejes mencionados y analiza el caso desde las teorizaciones elaboradas por el filósofo Nelson Goodman (2010, 1990), que versan sobre los posibles modos de un funcionar artístico.

In this article, we present findings from an ongoing research project that aims to investigate the artistic status of a popular, collective, and contemporary practice known as 'exvoto': a conglomerate of offerings, small houses/models located in the Difunta Correa sanctuary (Vallecito, San Juan). We believe that these popular objects, as visual images, deserve the attention and analysis of the History of Visual Arts. However, the artistic/poetic approach to these pieces reveals the absence and/or categorical limitations recognized by canonical aesthetic theory. Therefore, our approach involves a critical review of traditional theoretical concepts, the inclusion of Latin American aesthetic perspectives, and the deepening of the conceptual boundaries of reflection.
In this regard, this paper focuses on the last of the aforementioned axes and analyzes the case through the theoretical frameworks developed by the philosopher Nelson Goodman (2010, 1990) that deal with the possible modes of artistic functioning. |
