Thesis (Ph.D.)--New York University, 2003.

This dissertation project analyzes the role of institutional collecting, archiving and display in the negotiation of a modern national identity in late nineteenth and early twentieth-century Mexico (1867–1910). I argue that the narratives that are introduced into public access by the collection oscillate between the need for a sacrosanct patrimony on the one hand and the question of producing a marketable identity on the other.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a As the fine arts Academy of San Carlos, the Mexican pavilion built for the Paris World's Fair of 1889, the <italic>Museo de Arqueología, Historia y Etnografía</italic> and the published commentary that these institutions inspire employ specific narrative strategies to underwrite their collections, I explore the various forms of storytelling that sustain the implicit and self-actualizing fictions of displayed objects. In this context, the national collection and the type of gaze that it encodes effects a sense of membership and shared history, an impression that sustains itself simultaneously upon an economic logic of accumulation and surplus and the aesthetic production of nostalgia and loss. While this phenomenon of institutional collecting and public display was so prevalent in Europe and the Americas at this time juncture, critical analysis has not yet fully explored its specific contributions to nationalistic discourse, ideology, cultural production and globalization.
