ECCLES, Mark. Regina José Galindo: Politics of Memory and Affect. Palabra Clave [online]. 2023, vol.26, n.1, e2615.  Epub 30-Mar-2023. ISSN 0122-8285.  https://doi.org/10.5294/pacla.2023.26.1.5.

This text seeks to examine the performance work of Regina José Galindo. Our objective is to look at Galindo’s performance ¿Quién puede borrar las huellas? seeking to underline how political memory and affect-categories intrinsic to the work of Galindo-are at the core of a new emancipative language traceable in origin to the event. Embracing Alain Badiou’s concept of event, it is possible to present further questions about art and the possibility of its interaction with evental truths, moreover, to produce evental truths as part of art’s integral processes.

Palavras-chave : Event; performance; Guatemala; affect; memory; violence; history; truth; simulacrum.
