ABSTRACT Based on the theoretical conceptualization of what is known as decolonial aesthetics, the main objective of this article is to problematize the analysis of exhibition and circulation spaces of visual arts, such as museums, galleries or biennials, analyzing their role in current affairs from a decolonia]l perspective, particularly in regards to collecting and exhibiting. Simultaneously, three cases of visual art exhibitions are analyzed: The Afro Brazil Museum in São Paulo, the Just Not Australian exhibition at the Artspace Gallery in Sydney with National Anthem at the Buxton Contemporary Gallery in Melbourne, and Fricciones at the Paco Urondo Cultural Center, University of Buenos Aires. It is concluded that in such exhibitions there are contact spaces where different logics converge, one of which is decolonial aesthetic.
摘要基于所谓的非殖民化美学的理论概念，本文的主要目的是对视觉艺术的展览和流通空间（如博物馆、画廊或双年展）的分析提出问题，从非殖民化的角度分析它们在时事中的作用，特别是在收藏和展览方面。同时，分析了视觉艺术展览的三个案例：圣保罗的非裔巴西博物馆，悉尼艺术空间画廊的Just Not Australian展览，墨尔本巴克斯顿当代画廊的国歌，以及布宜诺斯艾利斯大学Paco Urondo文化中心的Fricciones。研究表明，在这些展览中，存在着不同逻辑交汇的接触空间，其中之一就是非殖民化美学。

ABSTRACT Several theoretical positions such as the “Global South” have challenged the developmentalist logic that continues to maintain cultural categorizations as they relate to art in the aftermath of WWII. In the current neoliberal era, the post-1945 developmentalist paradigm has gone even further by instrumentalizing culture itself produced under “conditions of oppression,” primarily to foster public diplomacy and economic benefits. Nation-states face globalization using these categories in order to create an authentic and competitive identity. This article engages in a cross-cultural analysis of arte popular brasileira—in which Brazil belongs to the Global South—and Māori art—in what I call the “southern isles” of Aotearoa New Zealand—both of which function in conditions of coloniality. I identify the implications of the strategies implemented in governmental policies and official institutional spaces for these artistic and cultural expressions.

ABSTRACT This work forms part of the creative component of a visual arts PhD, which investigates the legacy of the Colombia’s internal conflict as seen through the eyes of former combatants. The resultant work and associative exegesis seeks to elucidate the manner in which alternative photographic practices intended to represent and mediate the trauma and lived experience of the Colombian conflict might help to interrogate notions of cultural memory and identity through the subjective choices made in its production.

ABSTRACT In February 2017, the most massive demonstration in favor of refugees took place in Barcelona with the motto Refugees welcome! Yet, since then migration policies have become more restrictive under the influence of neofascist movements. How are we to cope with this social polarization? How are we to overcome the moral paralysis of Southern Europe regarding refugee policies? Since language creates reality, this article will examine the vagueness of words used to describe the different fluxes of forced mobility. Etymological analysis reveals how the use of terminology has been politicized up to the point of inhibiting any possible collective reaction. Following these considerations, the phenomenology of exile developed by philosophers and writers such as Josep Solanes and María Zambrano is recovered. The article proposes the articulation of a memory of exile as an ethical imperative for Europe, a continent of former settlers, outcasts, exiled and refugees.

ABSTRACT The ambiguous relations and subjectivities associated with the banality of evil are peripheral to a dominant human rights discourse oriented around the binary logics of perpetrators and victims and dictatorship and democracy. The absence of non-binary subjectivities reflects a conceptual gap relating to questions of shared responsibility posed by Hannah Arendt more than half a century ago. Despite its ongoing relevance for reflecting on the production of systematic suffering, the banality of evil remains an incomplete theoretical project. Here, I bring recent elaborations on Arendt’s notion of the banality of evil, particularly Michael Rothberg’s Implicated Subjects, to bear on Argentine memory politics. I highlight the potential for the notion of the implicated subject to expand Argentine memory studies beyond the perpetrator-victim binary of the Nunca Más human rights discourse. Conceptual art and artistic approaches to memory may provide fruitful avenues for future exploration of implicated subjectivities and horizons of responsibility.

ABSTRACT Museums are at the center of national debate about the role of violence in constituting Mexican patriotism. Museum exhibitions contextualize and critique powerful national mythologies of victimhood, presenting them alongside narratives that eulogize the military and its mandate to protect the state and citizens. The article focuses on two key typologies of museum exhibitions relating to the border: historical museums of national becoming, and museums that disrupt historical narratives to focus on human vulnerability. Both consider the border as a site of encounter between the state and its other, normalizing violence and militarization. One locates suffering at a border site that can be encountered physically but is demarcated by historical time. The other is physically distanced but occurs in the contemporary moment. Reflecting on the implications of these approaches is urgent given the widespread violence that has killed more than 100,000 people at the hands of narcotraffickers and state agents.

ABSTRACT Stefan Zweig, born in Vienna in 1881 and died by suicide in Petropolis/Brazil in 1942, to this day is one of the best known European authors. But the many biographies which have been written about him usually give short shrift to his stay in Brazil. Zweig chose Brazil as his country of exile because he had fallen in love with it. Before he came to settle, he had written a travelogue, Brazil, A Land of the Future, which appeared in six languages at the time of his arrival. His vision of Brazil, however, inspired by politically motivated misinformation, was seriously flawed which then upended his hopes of transplanting European culture to his new home. This article argues that this realization contributed to his decision to end his life.

ABSTRACT Since the late nineteenth century, comparisons of Argentina and Australia have been common as both countries had and have similar economies based on the export of commodities and the importation of migrants, finance and technology. By the 1970s it was apparent that in general Australians had a higher standard of living than did Argentines. In this article we argue that at least in part this was due to there being a more interventionist State in Australia, which raised more revenues per capita than did the Argentine State, and invested more heavily and more effectively in the development of societal capital including in the areas of education and health. This finding supports recent arguments from such multilateral organizations as the World Bank that investment in human capital, especially education but also health, generates economic and social development, and that this investment is predicated on government intervention.
