In this sense, a territory constitutes a &#8220;semiotic structure&#8221; that produces and delimits identities. Our subjectivities are then the result of the creation of the territory, the same one that, from a conceptual perspective, imposes through its rigid borders an artificial order in those places where there is indeterminacy and confusion.

What would it mean to embrace this anarchic reality and move towards a form of subjectivity that transcends rigid borders? What would a borderless territory, a no man&#8217;s land, look like? And how would this complexity manifest itself aesthetically?<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>On October 12, 1989, as part of the commemoration of what today is called the &#8220;Day of the Encounter of Two Worlds&#8221; in Latin America, las Yeguas del Apocalipsis, a performance duo formed by Pedro Lemebel and Francisco Casas, presented a work at the headquarters of the Chilean Human Rights Commission entitled <em>La Conquista de Am\u00e9rica<\/em>. With walkmans attached to their chests, the artists danced barefoot on shards of glass to the sound of a cueca song that only they could hear. The glass, which came from Coca Cola bottles, covered a map of South America without borders, <em>a no man&#8217;s land<\/em>. In this way, las Yeguas established a direct link between the conquest of America and the colonial logic of U.S. interventions in the violent political history of 20th century Latin America. At the same time, the artists recreated on the bloody map the &#8220;cueca sola&#8221;, a symbolic act of appropriation performed by Chilean women whose husbands, fathers and relatives had been victims of Augusto Pinochet&#8217;s dictatorship. Thus, las Yeguas also danced the women&#8217;s part as a symbolic alignment with the feminine and as an act of gender dissidence. As in many of their other works, Casas and Lemebel explored in this performance different territories: indigenism, latinidad, national identity, gender and sexuality.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\r\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\">\r\n<div id=\"attachment_1697\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1697\" class=\"wp-image-1697 \" style=\"width: 439px; height: 309px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Las-Yeguas-de-la-Apocalipsis-La-Conquista-de-America-1024x722.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"722\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Las-Yeguas-de-la-Apocalipsis-La-Conquista-de-America-1024x722.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Las-Yeguas-de-la-Apocalipsis-La-Conquista-de-America-300x211.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Las-Yeguas-de-la-Apocalipsis-La-Conquista-de-America-150x106.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Las-Yeguas-de-la-Apocalipsis-La-Conquista-de-America-768x541.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Las-Yeguas-de-la-Apocalipsis-La-Conquista-de-America-1536x1082.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Las-Yeguas-de-la-Apocalipsis-La-Conquista-de-America.jpg 1683w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-1697\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><strong>Fig. 1.

Throughout their written and visual work, las Yeguas created territories, but only to leave them behind and established others, constantly changing shape and manifesting themselves in different points across the margins. In this sense, their work exists -to continue their guerrilla logic- in no man&#8217;s land: a middle ground, liminal insofar as it does not belong to any particular subject. That is to say, a point where nothing is fixed and where one is in a constant process of <em>becoming<\/em>, not of <em>being<\/em>.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>This exhibition brings together twelve Latin American artists who examine identity through notions such as class, gender, ethnicity and race. Twelve artists who examine how identities are constructed and, in many cases, how they have been imposed on them, and who express through their practice their individual subjectivities without succumbing to universality or essentialism. The exhibition presents, mainly, works from two periods in which identity politics was the protagonist in artistic and curatorial discourses: the 1980s and the contemporary era. Using the works of las Yeguas del Apocalipsis as a guide, the exhibition is organized into three categories that highlight the conceptual and aesthetic (dis)continuities between works that explore the representations of different identities: <em>Appropriations<\/em>, <em>Circulations <\/em>and <em>Body-Territories<\/em>.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Appropriations<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>During the years of the Pinochet dictatorship, a group of Chilean women appropriated a nationalist symbol, the cueca, to turn it into the &#8220;cueca sola&#8221;. The national dance, which was traditionally performed by a man and a woman, was performed in this case by a woman alone, highlighting the absence of the men who disappeared in the context of the dictatorial regime. While the &#8220;cueca sola&#8221; was already transgressive in the way it included the disappeared, the cueca performed by Las Yeguas del Apocalipsis, an appropriation of this appropriation, incorporated the queer subject.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Likewise, in <em>Las Dos Fridas<\/em> (1989), las Yeguas appropriated another symbol of popular culture, Frida Kahlo&#8217;s famous 1939 painting, recreating it as a <em>tableau vivant<\/em>. By placing their bodies in the composition, connected by a blood transfusion tube, the duo recontextualized the work to reference the HIV pandemic.

This is the case of <em>Otras Fuentes II <\/em>(2009) and <em>Otras Fuentes III <\/em>(2009), where the artist appropriates canonical genres of European art history -the traditional portrait and the still life-, imitating works from the colonial period to blur the boundaries between production and reproduction, the original and the imitative or the authentic and the spurious.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\r\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\">\r\n<div id=\"attachment_980\" style=\"width: 801px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-980\" class=\"wp-image-980\" style=\"width: 286px; height: 370px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Gamarra-Sandra-Otras-Fuentes-II-791x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"791\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Gamarra-Sandra-Otras-Fuentes-II-791x1024.jpg 791w, https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Gamarra-Sandra-Otras-Fuentes-II-232x300.jpg 232w, https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Gamarra-Sandra-Otras-Fuentes-II-116x150.jpg 116w, https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Gamarra-Sandra-Otras-Fuentes-II-768x994.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Gamarra-Sandra-Otras-Fuentes-II-1187x1536.jpg 1187w, https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Gamarra-Sandra-Otras-Fuentes-II-1582x2048.jpg 1582w, https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Gamarra-Sandra-Otras-Fuentes-II-927x1200.jpg 927w, https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Gamarra-Sandra-Otras-Fuentes-II.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 791px) 100vw, 791px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-980\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><strong>Fig. 3.

In this performance, Leppe stands behind a transparent structure that simulates the outline of the Chilean flag, turning his head into its solitary star. If many interpret Duchamp&#8217;s work in terms of solitude (because of the monk&#8217;s tonsure) and fluidity (since the Roman five-pointed star is a sign of femininity), Leppe&#8217;s action superimposes these cultural meanings on a political territory. Similarly, Dario Escobar&#8217;s work also constitutes an act of Duchampean-influenced superimposition. Drawing Guatemalan flora on a ready-made (a McDonald&#8217;s cup), the artist imposes modernity on his local territory.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\r\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\">\r\n<div id=\"attachment_3954\" style=\"width: 796px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3954\" class=\"wp-image-3954\" style=\"width: 247px; height: 322px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Fig.-7-786x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"786\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Fig.-7-786x1024.jpg 786w, https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Fig.-7-230x300.jpg 230w, https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Fig.-7-115x150.jpg 115w, https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Fig.-7-768x1000.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Fig.-7-1180x1536.jpg 1180w, https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Fig.-7-1573x2048.jpg 1573w, https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Fig.-7-922x1200.jpg 922w, https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Fig.-7-scaled.jpg 1966w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 786px) 100vw, 786px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-3954\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><strong>Fig. 7.

Mindful that museums are spaces that produce identity and shape our subjectivities in the social sphere, the artists maintained a critical perspective against the normative narratives perpetuated by traditional exhibition formats. Instead of relying on them, las Yeguas chose to infiltrate public spaces in order to avoid the validation system of a museum and its totalizing narratives, intervening spaces such as the headquarters of the Chilean Human Rights Commission in the case of La Conquista de Am\u00e9rica (1989) or traditional places of learning in the case of Refundaci\u00f3n de la Universidad de Chile (1988). In line with these actions, this second section brings together artists who explore through their works the culture and politics of the circulation of visual culture and how these networks produce and reinforce rigid and normative identities.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The first of these artists is Eugenio Dittborn, whose aeropostal paintings infiltrate the artistic centers from the remote territory of 1980s Chile. These works can be perceived as the mapping of a complex network of geopolitical relations. In the aeropostal painting <em>Button Plumas<\/em> (1985), for example, the artist invokes the image of Jemmy Button, a man from Tierra del Fuego who was taken to the United Kingdom and imbued with the customs of that country in order to be supposedly saved from barbarism. In this work, Button symbolizes colonial epistemological violence and is used to explore the confrontation of Western and indigenous cultures, as well as ideas of travel and home. Thus, the theme and format of Dittborn&#8217;s work are inseparable: the idea of traveling to a &#8216;civilized&#8217; center and then returning to Chile resembles the journey that his aeropostal paintings also made. On the other hand, these works also show traces of movement in the folds of the paper that allowed them to be moved, or in the stamps on the envelopes displayed next to them. In this way, the continuous state of transit of the aeropostal paintings is as important as their points of origin and destination: they take from the places where they go but never stay there for long. Hanging directly on the wall, <em>Button Plumas<\/em> becomes part of the architecture of the gallery, undergoing a &#8220;continuous metamorphosis of character that undoes identity&#8221;<sup class=\"modern-footnotes-footnote \" data-mfn=\"7\" data-mfn-post-scope=\"000000007b8b612e0000000008a36ae4_5352\"><a href=\"javascript:void(0)\"  role=\"button\" aria-pressed=\"false\" aria-describedby=\"mfn-content-000000007b8b612e0000000008a36ae4_5352-7\">7<\/a><\/sup><span id=\"mfn-content-000000007b8b612e0000000008a36ae4_5352-7\" role=\"tooltip\" class=\"modern-footnotes-footnote__note\" tabindex=\"0\" data-mfn=\"7\">Willy Thayer, \u201cEugenio Dittborn: No Man\u2019s Land Paintings\u201d, in <em>Afterall<\/em>, Vol. 29, 2012, p. 84<\/span>.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\r\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\">\r\n<div id=\"attachment_3992\" style=\"width: 696px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3992\" class=\"wp-image-3992\" style=\"width: 280px; height: 418px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Fig.-8-1-e1734536182917-686x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"686\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Fig.-8-1-e1734536182917-686x1024.jpg 686w, https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Fig.-8-1-e1734536182917-201x300.jpg 201w, https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Fig.-8-1-e1734536182917-100x150.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Fig.-8-1-e1734536182917-768x1146.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Fig.-8-1-e1734536182917-1029x1536.jpg 1029w, https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Fig.-8-1-e1734536182917-804x1200.jpg 804w, https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Fig.-8-1-e1734536182917.jpg 1110w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 686px) 100vw, 686px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-3992\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><strong>Fig. 8.

From fiction, her work <em>\u00d1UQA KAUSAKUSAQ QHEPAYKITAPAS \/ I WILL OUTLIVE YOU<\/em> (2017) tells in Quechua the story of a man represented in a Moche huaco. The narrative of the story recounts the life of this man from his childhood to his eventual imprisonment, which allows us to draw a parallel between his biography and the story of the journey of the huaco that was stolen from a tomb in northern Peru and eventually found by the artist in the deposit of a European museum. Fiction thus becomes a tool to restore a sense of agency to those whose histories were erased. In other words, it becomes a tool to resist the totalizing narratives imposed by ethnological museums on foreign cultures.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\r\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\">\r\n<div id=\"attachment_3952\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3952\" class=\"wp-image-3952\" style=\"width: 439px; height: 247px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Fig.-9-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Fig.-9-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Fig.-9-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Fig.-9-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Fig.-9-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Fig.-9-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Fig.-9.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-3952\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><strong>Fig. 9.

In <em>\u00a1Ni parece Guatemala!<\/em> (2020), Boror works with the postcard format, historically used to disseminate exoticized images of the colonies. By representing the colonial subject as an object to be observed, the postcard certainly contributed to justify its subjugation. Thus, Boror uses this format to unveil the colonial imaginary, representing the indigenous communities fading away in front of a modern commercial district located in Guatemala City.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Meanwhile, in <em>Miss Chile, Onas<\/em> (1990), Juan Pablo Langlois reproduces photographs of indigenous women taken from a book that he found in the Chilean Museum of Pre-Columbian Art. By titling his work in this way, the artist refers to the racialized standards of beauty imposed on women through the media. The word <em>miss<\/em>, on the other hand, also means &#8220;to miss&#8221;, which, following the logic of Boror&#8217;s work, may be another gesture that points to the fading of an identity.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\r\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\">\r\n<div id=\"attachment_3951\" style=\"width: 908px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3951\" class=\"wp-image-3951\" style=\"width: 333px; height: 380px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Fig.-10-898x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"898\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Fig.-10-898x1024.jpg 898w, https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Fig.-10-263x300.jpg 263w, https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Fig.-10-131x150.jpg 131w, https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Fig.-10-768x876.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Fig.-10-1052x1200.jpg 1052w, https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Fig.-10.jpg 1300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 898px) 100vw, 898px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-3951\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><strong>Fig. 10.

From this same perspective, the artists gathered in this third section explore how subjectivity is expressed through the body.

The artist, who lived with the subjects of her photographs and formed affective bonds and friendships with them, produces an affective record of dissident bodies that lived in danger for existing outside the binarism and the rigidity of normative identity. Err\u00e1zuriz&#8217;s gaze, on the other hand, is not totalizing, and the artist&#8217;s care and attention is present in each image. This allows the people she portrays in this series to maintain their individual personality.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\r\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\">\r\n<div id=\"attachment_3950\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3950\" class=\"wp-image-3950\" style=\"width: 482px; height: 316px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Fig.-11-1024x671.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"671\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Fig.-11-1024x671.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Fig.-11-300x197.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Fig.-11-150x98.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Fig.-11-768x503.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Fig.-11-1536x1006.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Fig.-11-2048x1342.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.ilposto.cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Fig.-11-1832x1200.jpg 1832w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-3950\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><strong>Fig. 11.

In this artist&#8217;s paintings, the bodies collide and merge with each other and with the landscape, resist easy identification and often appear genderless.
