The instrumental-material nature of the phenomenon pointed out by various authors is also recognized in the film. Biologicism simultaneously moves through the planes of the obvious and the hidden. In the first, it acquires the profile of a structuring and decomposing factor of relationships, although formally it is abstract. In the second, it acts as an element that blocks the recognition of social classes, their relationships, training processes and labor hierarchies. Thus, biologicalism is a vehicle through which the interests of the hegemonic classes are promoted, and which results in the recreation and perpetuation of capitalist social relations of production.","PeriodicalId":498393,"journal":{"name":"Revista de antropología visual","volume":"23 6","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134992684","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Its varied collection, which emphasizes Natural History—includes biological, fossil, mineral specimens, and scientific instruments— where the taxidermy stand out. The collection, in exhibition since 1881 is the second oldest exhibition in the country with more than 650 mounted specimens. The exotic specimens came mostly from the Commercial House Émile Deyrolle in Paris, which sells didactic objects of Natural History to this day from all over the world. The following research has as an objective to show through photography the most ancient taxidermy in the San Rafael Seminary Museum (MSV). In this study, a comparative analysis of images along with all available historical documents has been assessed. In this regard, photography has played an essential role allowing to identify and characterize specimens as well as tracking down the origin of these collections.","PeriodicalId":498393,"journal":{"name":"Revista de antropología visual","volume":"217 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135341491","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Proposed by the artist Mónica Mayer and curators Julia Antivilo and María Laura Rosa, Archiva Chilena documented 68 works by 57 Chilean artists, creating an archive of feminist “masterpieces”. The objective of this article is to reflect on the practices of representation and feminist visual culture that emerge from this archive, in order to understand how this action enhances the emergence of a Virtual Feminist Museum within CNAC. Through the analysis of Archiva, we will reflect on how it introduces new epistemic possibilities that challenge gender and power relations within art institutions.","PeriodicalId":498393,"journal":{"name":"Revista de antropología visual","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135552410","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We ask ourselves about the representations built around childhood and heritage with which these institutions elaborate their museographic designs and how these representations are materialized in their museography and contents. We used a qualitative approach and an exploratory design, which we applied to the Museo Histórico Nacional de Santiago and the Museo Artequín Viña del Mar. The results show that the differences in origin and focus determine the way in which childhood is represented, so that in one museum the spatial, experiential and interactive vision stands out, and in the other one the observation and passive contemplation. In both museums the discussion on childhood is important.","PeriodicalId":498393,"journal":{"name":"Revista de antropología visual","volume":"103 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135901428","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
