This work analyzes —from my ethnographic field work in the area— the tensions that were generated in an educational institution in El Bolsón —Río Negro, Argentine Patagonia— around the photographic exhibition "Prisoners of Science", from the Colectivo GUIAS (School of Natural Sciences and Museum, University of La Plata). It was brought on the occasion of the Day of Remembrance, for Truth and Justice, which in our country commemorates the last civil-military dictatorship, in order to reflect on state terrorism in relation to indigenous peoples. Some participants evaluated that it was not pertinent to show those photographs where the humiliation of the prisoners was extreme. I analyze the conflict among different opinions and positions which were evinced at the opening of the photographic exhibition, from the standpoint of Judith Butler's framework theory, assuming the group of photographs exhibited as "speech acts".It is essential to analyze the significant and conflictive conjunction of State terrorism and Indigenous peoples in El Bolsón in the light of the restitution of the remains of Margarita Foyel —prisoner in the Museum of La Plata— in 2015 and the disappearance of Santiago Maldonado and the murder of Rafael Nahuel in 2017. |
