Violencia fotografiada y fotografías violentas. Acciones agresivas y coercitivas en las fotografías etnográficas de pueblos originarios fueguinos y patagónicos

In this paper we analyze two corpuses of photographs that document forms of violence experienced by the Indigenous Peoples of Tierra del Fuego and Pampa-Patagonia in the context of the advancing presence of Western agents (voyagers, militaries, missionaries, ethnographers) in their territories, betw...

Regarding violent photographs, the Pampa-Patagonian Indigenous Peoples have been represented as violent “savages” or as dominated “civilized” peoples, while the Fueguian Indigenous Peoples have been represented as the “transcultured otherness” (as religious propaganda), or as the “exotic otherness” (as subjects of scientific study). These trends contrast with those observed in the global corpus of photographs, which record numerous non-violent situations in which the cultural variability generated by the Indigenous' agency can be appreciated.Dánae FioreAna ButtoCentre de Recherches sur les Mondes Américainsarticleviolencephotographsindigenous peopleTierra del FuegoPatagoniaAnthropologyGN1-890Latin America.
