In response to the rise of neoliberalism, Latin(x) American artists and writers turned to memory as a poetic force to challenge the monumentalization of history. This course examines how feminist and queer perspectives highlight the tension between fragments and totality, residues and fixed narratives, reimagining memory as a form of resistance. It explores memory across various media, analyzing themes of gendered violence, feminicide, post-dictatorship trauma, and racial marginalization in the works of artists and writers like Cecilia Vicuña, Óscar Muñoz, and Rosana Paulino, among others.
