This paper aims to address the tension between scenes of autonomy and post-autonomy of art in the incipient genre of testimonial practices of the self of the generation of disappeared people in the last civic-military dictatorship’s daughters and sons. For this, we will start from the reading of Boris Groys (2016) about Walter Benjamin's reflections on the distinction between poet-ics and aesthetics and the ways in which art overflows both (production mechanisms and reception). We intend to arrive at a proposal that considers a possibility of specific negative autonomy for these productions. The analysis part of what we consider is the central scene of the first documentary by Al-bertinaCarri, Los rubios (2003), a film at the same time founding a genera-tional voice and an aesthetic-political gesture that knew how to combine the experience of subjective search with subjective actions around the traces of "being able to disappear" (Calveiro, 1998) in the present. We argued that it´s shown in this scene the critical debate that continued the film and which marked the first decade of the 21st century: the problems of autonomy and post-autonomy in the contemporary literary and artistic scene of the self.

Palabras clave : Postautonomy; Los rubios; memory; experience; contemporary art.
