Project
I am a cultural critic who focuses on issues of performativity, embodiment and spectacularization in early twentieth century Argentina. At Faber, I will examine the way in which Avant-guard writers conceptually and materially experimented with their own bodies in public venues, and, by doing so, explored questions concerning the right to appear in public and the democratization of the public sphere. Part of a book-length project on intellectual interventions in alternative spaces, such as mass demonstrations, lecture halls, and artists’ clubs, my research addresses human-nonhuman relations, visual and haptic practices, and mobility and disability concerns emerging in an era of dramatic urban transformation, mass migration, and rapid technological innovation.
