This paper discusses the representational reconfiguration of identity and decentering of the contemporary photographic gaze. The study focus on images of Gaucho Antonio Gil festivity, one of the most widespread manifestation of popular religiosity in the last decade in Argentina. These visual representations are strongly linked to national rhetorics. We also analyze the representational reconfiguration as a process affected by the decentering of the photographic gaze. These mechanisms destabilize established visibility schemes, producing new ways of seeing, representing and performing the identities.This work is an interdisciplinary analysis, with contributions from Cultural and Visual Studies, History of Art and the Latin American Communication Criticism. We analyze photographs taken between 2008 and 2012 by Argentine photographers Juan Pablo Faccioli and Guillermo Rusconi, in dialogue with other narratives.

Palabras clave : Representation; Photography; Performativity; Identity; Popular religiosity; Argentina.
