Memória dos desaparecidos: algumas estratégias visuais1 1 Agradeço a colaboração dos funcionários da Biblioteca Nacional Mariano Moreno (Buenos Aires) e da Biblioteca y Centro de Documentación Obispo Angelelli do Centro Cultural de la Memoria Haroldo Conti (Buenos Aires).

ABSTRACT

The politics of forced disappearance, established by the Junta Militar that ruled Argentina between 1976 and 1983, had as a corollary the denial of the desaparecido’s existence, defined “non entity” by president Jorge Rafael Videla in a press conference held in December 1979. The attempt to erase the very existence of desaparecidos has been contested by public actions and artistic interventions that enunciate the theme of the memory in many ways.
