Abstract

Abstract The exhibition MapsUrbe: The invisible City (December 2018 – January 2019) staged the creations of young Mapuche artists and activists addressing the politics and history of the indigenous diaspora in Santiago (Chile). Engaging with urban space materiality and the trajectories shaped by displacement and endurance within the city, the exhibition explored subversive aesthetics and political imaginations, crafting alternative spatialities and temporalities. Building on two years of collaborative work with Mapuche artists and activists, and moving from an initial act of generative refusal, this paper explores a redefinition of curatorial practices within collective artistic projects that aim at opposing dominant historical narratives. By reflecting on an experience of collective co-curation, it shows how these practices challenge established and institutionalized narratives embedded in public spaces, resulting in creative appropriations and powerful counter-narratives ‘on our own terms.’
“以我们自己的方式”:智利圣地亚哥公共空间中的拒绝、面具和土著反叙事
“MapsUrbe:看不见的城市”展览(2018年12月至2019年1月)展示了年轻马普切艺术家和活动家的创作,讲述了智利圣地亚哥土著移民的政治和历史。展览结合城市空间的物质性和城市中位移和耐力形成的轨迹,探索了颠覆性的美学和政治想象,创造了替代的空间性和时间性。在与马普切艺术家和活动家两年的合作工作基础上,从最初的生成拒绝行为开始,本文探讨了集体艺术项目中策展实践的重新定义,旨在反对主导的历史叙事。通过反思集体策展的经验,它展示了这些实践如何挑战嵌入公共空间的既定和制度化的叙事,从而产生创造性的挪用和“以我们自己的方式”产生强大的反叙事。
