- 25. http://www.ufmg.br/museumuseu/colecionador/collector/news_002.html Look through, cut out, classify, store. These image gathering and collating procedures do not really correspond to the strict work of archivists, for whom there has to be a limit on variants in order to rationalize the various means of searching reference data. The Collector is more flexible and shifting, it weaves thematic patterns; it shuttles back to review and reclassify a sequence that may suddenly catch its attention.
- 26. in The Collector (since 1998) you have created the concept of an archive of newspaper images, you have selected the materials, and worked as an archivist, creating fictional categories to classify the images as historical documents. What is compelling for you about archives? Are you attracted by the aura of historical documents? Are you interested in creating a pseudoscientific artistic language?Mabe Bethônico: I am interested in the fictional potential of documents, displacing their importance, recontextualizing them. The projects are narratives, built through appropriated or constructed images and texts. I am interested in looking for gaps, lacks, sometimes through what may be hidden, forgotten, focusing on commenting on the institution, its relationship with the public for instance, as was the case for the 27th Bienal de São Paulo. http://www.28bienalsaopaulo.org.br/participant/mabe-bethonico

Editor's Notes
- This plate from Richter’s «Atlas» compiles the artist’s grid-structured family photos, typical for working on the archive. Here Richter’s confrontation with structures and processes of collective memory culminates in the area of private photography.
- Mabe Bethõnico began O Colecionador in 1996 and has since been developing, enlarging and adding complexity to it. The work consists of a large archive of images and texts taken from newspapers and organised according to a classification departing from four themes: "Destruction", "Corrosion", "Construction" and "Flowers". From these initial main themes, a number of other subtitles are distributed in folders, called "essays". This classification, seemingly totalizing and rigorous is in fact highly changeable and seems never to satisfy the encyclopaedic and organising spirit of the archivist collector. At each new incursion through periodicals, boxes and folders, Mabe Bethônico and the collector often find new titles, themes and rubrics, either combining categories, either subdividing them.
- Paul Druecke, a social event archive, Social Ocassion snapshots contributed by the publicA Social Event Archive began in 1997 when artist Paul Druecke went door to door inviting people to contribute one photo from their personal collection. Druecke created the project around the this invitation–everyone is invited to contribute one photo. The Archive holds over 700 photographs in its collection. The Archive assembles the photos in the order received, and presents them as a traveling exhibition and in editioned books. The photographs were not curated; they needed only to fulfill the guidelines.
