Remembrance museum and national museum of Colombia: the art of exposing narratives about the internal armed conflict
Main Article Content
Abstract
The aim of this paper is to reflect about two museological processes: the renovation of the National Museum of Colombia, focused on Memory and Nation room, and the projection of the National Museum of Historical Memory ( MNMH ) in the context of an internal armed conflict and peace negotiation process between the government of President Juan Manuel Santos and the guerrillas of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia. Based on an ethnographic work in Bogotá during the years 2014 and 2015, I discuss some of the museographical dilemmas that have emerged in different social contexts when it seeks to show or represent historical processes of violence that have marked a nation in a decisive way.
