Havana: A Cidade como catástrofe em antonio josé ponte

Abstract

Ortiz saw the acceleration of time in Cuba. However, the museification (Agamben) has become the agenda of post-revolutionary Havana. For Ponte, to walk through the streets of Havana is like to undertake a time travel. The city is not only a museum but also a museum in ruins. Havana is a bombarded city by a bombing that never took place. Thus, life goes underground. Tuguria, the submerged city, is however fully synchronized to the wasteland that grows on the surface.
