What We Learned from the Past: revised Sin Título, Técnica Mixta, (2015), by Yuyachkani

Abstract

In this article I present an analysis of the work Sin título, técnica mixta (2004), by the Peruvian cultural group called Yuyachkani, drawing attention to the revised edition (2015). The reflections that have been proposed here come from the need to present a review of the work, in order to pinpoint the ways this assembly, from the aesthetic point of view, follows a tradition of theatrical practices which mixes and experiences various artistic languages with the purpose to set itself the challenge to stage vivid and moving memories and, in terms of ethics, proposes a memory exercise on the country’s history while at the same time pits the contradictions and the contemporary social conflicts against each other.
