In first person is an initiative designed to revive our heritage, an action proposed by Carlota Beltrame for the corridor of sculptures linking the two halls at the Timoteo Navarro Museum in the City of Tucuman. For her, it is vital to give each work avoice, waking it from its lethargy and reliving its history, reinvigorating its field of allegorical references and endowing it with life “in the first person.” This is an attempt to banish oblivion, to summon forgotten images back into the light and reclaim other narratives within a story that otherwise fades in the retelling, losing the power and immediacy of experience.
