Abstract
Taking as a standpoint the discussion between Ann Cvetkovich (2003) and Sara Ahmed (2015) regarding the idea of the archive, we pretend to delimit a specific form of the archival practice which considers ethical and affective dimensions and to contribute to revise the notion of historical representation and the statute of archival documents. To do so, we propose to explore a series of aesthetical productions of Albertina Carri—Restos (2010), Operación Fracaso y el Sonido Recobrado (2015) and Cuatreros (2017)—with the objective of inquiring on the ways in which she builds the archive and conceives the documents, attending to recover the role of experience, territory and memory over Argentinian recent past.
