Immaterial Traces: Objects, Archives, Dust (1980-2020), considers the poetics of ephemerality, fragility, and precariousness as forms of disruption and resistance in Latin American contemporary culture. Here I create a corpus of works that use unstable and residual materialities, like anonymous photographs, discarded objects, pieces of words, prosthesis, among others, to create archives that challenge hegemonic forms of understanding. My readings of Graciela Iturbide, Mario Bellatin, Oscar Munoz, Cecilia Vicuna, Valeria Luiselli and Guillermo Galindo show how their works depart from a context of sociocultural fractures in which memory arises as a privileged cultural site occupied by hegemonic forces. Their work reconceptualizes this memory through an acute attention to materiality. Immaterial Traces perceives in these artists a drive to move away from fixed representations of the past and to make memory a site of political struggle. They do so by highlighting the imperfection and impermanence of their works and their open reformulation of aesthetic conventions. In developing the critique proffered by these works-of, for example, the speed of information, the monumentalization of collective memory, and the flattening of experience-this dissertation attends to the remains of what would otherwise be simply imperceptible. Thus, I show how, by recomposing what has been dispossessed, these artists and writers give way to life forces that refigure immediate pasts and potential futures.

520 $a Este trabajo considera poeticas de lo efimero, lo fragil y lo precario como formas de resistencia e imaginacion politica en la cultura latinoamericana contemporanea. Analizo un corpus de obras que usan materialidades inestables y residuales, como fotografias anonimas, objetos descartados, fragmentos de palabras, protesis, entre otros, para crear archivos que desafian las formas hegemonicas de conocimiento. Mis lecturas de artistas y escritores como Graciela Iturbide, Mario Bellatin, Oscar Munoz, Cecilia Vicuna, Valeria Luiselli y Guillermo Galindo muestran como sus trabajos parten de un contexto de fracturas socioculturales en el que la memoria surge como un sitio cultural privilegiado ocupado por fuerzas hegemonicas. Su trabajo reconceptualiza esta memoria a traves de una atencion a la materialidad. "Rastros Inmateriales" percibe en estos artistas una motivacion para alejarse de las representaciones fijas del pasado y hacer de la memoria un sitio de lucha politica. Lo hacen destacando la imperfeccion e impermanencia de sus obras y una reformulacion abierta de convenciones esteticas. Al desarrollar la critica que estas obras ofrecen-de, por ejemplo, la velocidad de la informacion, la monumentalizacion de la memoria colectiva, y las practicas neoliberales-, esta disertacion presta atencion a los restos de lo que de otro modo seria simplemente imperceptible. De este modo, mi investigacion muestra como, al recomponer lo que ha sido desposeido, estos artistas y escritores dan paso a formas de vida que reconfiguran pasados inmediatos y articulan futuros posibles.
