“…La mistificación de la naturaleza como “lo dado” habilitará la naturalización de la cultura indígena y la “negación de co‐temporalidad” entre Occidente (Chile) y los Otros (atacameños) (Fabian 1983). En su práctica arqueológica e iconográfica, Le Paige usa a los niños para mediar con el imaginario de las momias: los niños atacameños como ayudantes indígenas que desentierran los cadáveres, y los niños “turistas” como signos indexicales de una vitalidad diacrónica en las fotografías de momias (Pavez Ojeda 2012).…”

Violent death and forced disappearance, as necropolitical operations of the dictatorship of Augusto Pinochet (Chile, 1973–1990), has been the subject of a war of images where the naturalization of disappearance and the invisibilization of violence were confronted by images created to make visible what state terrorism had tried to erase from historical memory. This article addresses the becoming‐image of these bodies, after their organic death, in the different temporalities of their inscription in social memory through art, cinema, anthropology, and the law. I offer thus a journey into a little explored dimension of necropolitics, such as attempts to manage time and memory through operations of concealment and the technopolitics of images. The written montage of Walter Benjamin's “dialectical images,” which juxtapose, condense, and intertwine heterogeneous temporalities, seeks to show how images of the dead can contribute to disabling the necropolitical administration of memory.

“…8 In anthropological and ethnographic terms, time is also representational: the idea of the ethnographic present, in which writings of anthropologists depict an unchanging inviolable and oft en apparently backward culture as it would have been prior to contact, is part of a project of exoticisation and even demonization of the Other, historically undertaken by anthropologists from the Western world. 9 Th e tense used to describe a culture determines how active, and how real, that culture appears to a reader or observer.…”

Th is article argues that understanding any space or site relies on a knowledge of its fourth dimension -the timescape. It will explore this by situating the investigation in the museum -a place of heightened contrivance which could easily be shallowly interpreted as "mere style". It will defend a new method of investigating museum temporality which combines both phenomenology and literary theory, and will replace the idea of geo-epistemology with geochronic epistemology: an understanding of context and situation which takes on time as well as spatial location. In so doing, it moves on from notions of the museum as a place out of time, situating it in the networks of meaning, power and politics in which we have lived and are living. Th us, "the whole space of the exhibition" as Lyotard said, "becomes the remains of all time": the Museum on the Edge of Forever.

“…Como referia Johannes Fabian (1983), a forma como os povos estudados pelos antropólogos foram tomados como "objetos" passivos em "diferença" absoluta teve uma consequência problemática no entendimento do tempo do outro. Esse tempo do outro foi alvo de um distanciamento que lhe recusou sempre uma contemporaneidade efetiva 8 .…”

O objetivo deste texto é analisar como as representações e as autorrepresentações da cultura árabe se projetam em eventos performativos particulares como são as recriações históricas de cariz cristão no mundo ocidental, nomeadamente em Portugal e Espanha. Estas imagens serão também observadas na criação de espaços e de projetos performativos dedicados sobretudo à dança e à música de traços árabes ou orientais. Procura-se explicitar modos de configuração deste outro mundo que são construídos por meio de formas de expressão performativa emergentes na atualidade europeia como exercícios nostálgicos de objetificação do passado da Velha Europa cristã. Estas podem ser melhor entendidas como reperformances. O texto suporta-se na pesquisa etnográfica em diversos eventos de recriação histórica, nas interlocuções com performers e na etnografia destes espaços e projetos dedicados a estilos performativos árabes, supostamente tradicionais.
