Museo Carmen Thyssen

Pre-established clichés (Voices of Memory)

This audiovisual work arises from the encounter between three different viewpoints from the 1960s and 1970s. Firstly, the institutional vision expressed in a tourist guide to Andalusia made by Producciones cinematográficas Logar; secondly, the viewpoint evident in the Super 8 holiday films shot by a French tourist; and thirdly, the domestic viewpoint reflected in the Super 8 home movies made by amateurs in Malaga.

Voices of Memory is an action-research project that has used different audiovisual formats to create a participative video installation. The project has set out to establish relationships between the past and present, taking the Museo Carmen Thyssen Málaga as the focus point for the construction of a potential collective memory.
