Between the 17th and 18th of September 2024, the School of Communication and Arts of University of São Paulo will host the symposium “Corpo-archive: audiovisual practices, memories and imaginations”. The event proposes a dialogue between collaborative archival practices in Latin America, which question and reformulate the hegemonic perspectives on audiovisual memories, their circulation and access, and policies of heritage conservation.
The meeting will feature the participation of archivists, curators and researchers who will reflect on archival practices and their possible imaginations. What are the bodies of a file or more specifically a file-body? What happens if we think of archives as bodies of memories? How are the different power relations and violence inherent to its formation manifested in its marks and absences? And finally, how do smaller audiovisual archives contribute to contemporary decolonial debates about the archive?
To talk about the topic "Archives, university and social memories: Rereadings from different disciplinary and theoretical perspectives", in panel IV, the symposium organization invited Prof. Rose Satiko and documentation specialist Leonardo Rovina Fuzer, from LISA-USP.
