Representations of memory in Peruvian retablos. - 372 p.

Thesis (Ph.D.)--The George Washington University, 2005.

This dissertation discusses how historical processes of Peru's recent past and different forms of memory are manifested in the retablo, a Peruvian artwork that derives from colonial Santero chapels and Andean sanmarcos. In August 2003 the Peruvian Truth and Reconciliation Commission put retablos at the center of the political debate about memory, truth, and reconciliation by using a retablo-stage to present its final report in Ayacucho. What makes retablos effective agents for such powerful symbolism?

520 $a This dissertation discusses how historical processes of Peru's recent past and different forms of memory are manifested in the retablo, a Peruvian artwork that derives from colonial Santero chapels and Andean sanmarcos. In August 2003 the Peruvian Truth and Reconciliation Commission put retablos at the center of the political debate about memory, truth, and reconciliation by using a retablo-stage to present its final report in Ayacucho. What makes retablos effective agents for such powerful symbolism?
520 $a Based upon fieldwork in Ayacucho (Huamanga, Alcamenca), Lima (San Juan de Lurigancho, Barranco, Miraflores), and Florida (Naples) I show how retablos are important vehicles through which we can explore the construction of social memory and identity-processes in post-war Peru. My aim is to provide a critical ethnography of contemporary Peru by analyzing the displacements, placements, and struggles of the retablistas and the depiction of their experiences in retablos. In this study I privilege retablos done since the 1970s when retablistas introduced historical events and communal life (e.g. daily life and personal experiences) into their depictions. Special attention is paid to those artworks done during the period of political violence and military repression (1980--2000).
520 $a Central to my research are three main strategies. First, I foreground historical processes, studying retablistas and retablos as agents and products of historical change. Second, placing retablos at the center as agents and products allows me to study these objects (and their visual narratives) in circulation. I discuss how objects (retablos) and the artists retablistas) move through different paths and the kinds of relationships that are established along these paths. Finally, I discuss how memory is constructed dialogically in retablos, especially in the relationships established among artists, their artwork, the figures inside the artwork, and their audience. By studying the imagery of retablos in its heterogeneity and polyphony, and showing how retablistas (as individuals and a collectivity) engage in dialogues at different levels, I expect to contribute to the study of agency, memory, and the construction of present-day cultural identities.
