Abstract The Ethnographic Museum “Juan B. Ambrosetti” was affected by the interventions of the national universities of the dictatorial governments between 1930 and 1983. After the democratic return, the Directorate of JA Pérez Gollán and M. Dujovne began an institutional transformation in light of debates about the role of anthropology museums. His project spread twenty-four years ago in Runa influences, even today, the development of various lines of work. The exhibition “Challenging silence: indigenous peoples and dictatorship”, inaugurated forty years after the last coup d’état, is the result of this process of change. As part of the work team that developed it, we propose to reflect on this exhibition in light of the conceptual and museum transformations proposed in that Project. And we ask ourselves how to reflect on state violence, resistance, absences, silences and demands for justice in a university museum of anthropology?
