The Research Group Cartografía crítica del arte y la visualidad en la era global: Nuevas metodologías, conceptos y enfoques analíticos develops one of its lines of research around the contemporary theoretical contributions regarding the notion of archive, with a special section dedicated to the use of archive by different contemporary artists, extending the geographical area of study to cases developed not only in Europe or North America but also in Latin America based on case studies that support the thesis that the use of the archive paradigm can be considered a phenomenon of global scale.
