O local que se elegeu para abordar o objeto de estudo foi o Instituto Inhotim - Centro de Arte Contemporânea, que se encontra em Brumadinho - MG. O texto está dividido em quatro capítulos. O primeiro capítulo busca compreender de quais corpos se está tratando, das suas especificidades, dos seus entrelugares e de que forma esses corpos se manifestam na arte contemporânea. O segundo capítulo aborda a discussão do corpo, seus reflexos e sua duplicidade segundo as instalações das artistas Valeska Soares e Yayoi Kusama. No terceiro capítulo, trava-se uma discussão entre os artistas e as respectivas obras de Matthew Barney e Tunga, onde o corpo se coloca em constantes questionamentos e diálogos entre o híbrido e o metamorfoseado. E no quarto e último capítulo, referendam-se questões acerca do corpo e da tecnologia onde novas geografias sonoras e audiovisuais são pensadas e executadas como forma de incorporar os dispositivos e os meios eletrônicos quase inseparáveis e indispensáveis para os indivíduos, hoje, no espaço da arte e como prolongamento do corpo; para tanto foram selecionados o casal Cardiff & Miller e o artista Doug Aitken / Abstract: This essay shows the need that one has to think, investigate and study the body in contemporary art. Inhotim Institute - Center of Contemporary Art, located at Brumadinho - MG was the chosen place for this thesis. The text has been divided into four chapters. The first chapter searches to understand which bodies are being discussed; their specificities, their "in-between-places" and most of all how these bodies are manifested in contemporary art. The second chapter addresses the discussion of the body, its reactions and its duplicity; all in accordance with the installations of the artists Valeska Soares and Yayoi Kusama. The third chapter welcomes you into a debate between the artists Matthew Barney and Tunga, and their works. Where the body is put into questioning, and an open dialogue surges between the hybrid and the modified. The fourth and final chapter indorses questions about body and technology; where the new sound and audiovisual characteristics are thought and executed as a way to integrate gadgets and electronic media. Showing that it could become almost an inseparable and indispensable tool for anybody in today's art; where art is an extension of the body; for this, I've selected the couple Cardiff & Miller and the artist Doug Aitken / Mestrado / Artes Visuais / Mestra em Artes Visuais

No Brasil o interesse remonta à década de 1920, com os estudos do psiquiatra Osório Cesar, baseados nas produções plásticas de pacientes do Hospital Juqueri e também com Ulisses Pernambucano, que em 1925 funda o Instituto de Psicologia do Recife. O presente estudo intencionou estudar o "Mês das Crianças e dos Loucos" - exposição organizada por Flávio de Carvalho e Osório César acompanhada por uma série de conferências, no ano de 1933, em São Paulo, no Clube dos Artistas Modernos (CAM) - do qual participaram artistas, médicos, intelectuais e educadores num momento de grande efervescência cultural modernista no país. O evento colocou em pauta os pontos comuns entre as produções plásticas da infância e dos doentes mentais. Discutiu prioritariamente o interesse que despontava entre alguns artistas plásticos e psiquiatras pela produção da criança, de um lado, e do louco, de outro, que este evento reuniu sob o mesmo teto. Este estudo se apoiou em metodologia documental para desenhar a estrutura do evento (como foi organizado o mês, quais coleções e obras foram expostas, e de que forma e quem dele participou) e seu impacto cultural. Interessou conhecer os argumentos que justificaram o evento, os princípios norteadores, o design da curadoria, a repercussão em jornais e periódicos do momento envolvidos e correlacionados à exposição. O estudo mostrou que este evento representou um marco em termos do encontro entre as áreas de arte, educação e psicologia e teve desdobramentos culturais significativos na cidade de São Paulo na década de 1930. / Abstract: The "Month of the Children and the Insane": reconstitution of the 1933 Paulista Exhibition From the nineteenth-century to the present day, there has been growing interest on the part of psychiatrists, psychologists and visual artists in bringing together the artistic production by the insane and by children. In Brazil, such interest emerges in the 1920s with publications by the psychiatrist Osório Cesar who studied visual arts productions of psychiatric patients from Hospital Juqueri, as well as Ulisses Pernambucano who founded the Instituto de Psicologia in Recife in 1925. This study aimed to investigate the "Month of the Children and the Insane" - an exhibition and series of conferences organized in 1933 by the artist Flávio de Carvalho and Osório Cesar in São Paulo at the Clube dos Artistas Modernos (CAM) - with the participation of artists, medical doctors, intellectuals and education professionals, at a time of great modernist upheaval in the country. The event illuminated common aspects of productions by children and people with mental illness. The discussion mainly circled around the emerging interest among some visual artists and psychiatrists in artwork by children on the one hand and by the insane on the other, which this event brought together under the same roof. This study used documentary methodology to design the structure of the event (how the month was organized, which collections and works were shown, and how they were presented, and who participated) and its cultural impact, We were interested in understanding the arguments that justified the event, the guiding principles, the curatorial design, the repercussions in current newspapers and in journals that were involved and related to the exhibition. The study showed that this event represented a breakthrough in terms of the coming together of the fields of visual arts, education and psychology, with significant cultural results for the city of São Paulo in the 1930s. / Mestrado / Artes Visuais / Mestre em Artes

Os objetos da dissertação Entre texto e obra - Ronaldo Brito e Waltercio Caldas (1973-1983) são as trajetórias do crítico de arte Ronaldo Brito e do artista Waltercio Caldas durante a década de 1970 e início da década seguinte, as intersecções entre ambas e uma parte da dinâmica da arte contemporânea brasileira do período que sofreu os impactos dessas trajetórias. Esta dissertação propôs investigar as principais linhas de força que perpassaram a arte brasileira entre 1973 e 1983, e em que medida estes vetores marcaram os desdobramentos do meio artístico brasileiro a partir de então, tendo como referências os textos de Ronaldo Brito e a obra de Waltercio Caldas. Foi possível identificar alguns aspectos que marcaram as trajetórias pesquisadas e conseqüentemente, parte do panorama da arte brasileira do período, como as relações dialéticas estabelecidas com a experiência da arte moderna, as mudanças ocorridas paralelamente ao estabelecimento de um novo contexto internacional e o fortalecimento de preocupações ligadas ao papel do mercado de arte no meio artístico. / Between writings and art work . Ronaldo Brito and Waltercio Caldas (1973-1983) dissertation objects are the trajectory of Ronaldo Brito, art reviewer, and the artist Waltercio Caldas in the 70´s and beginning of the 80´s, the intersection between them and a part of the discussion about Brazilian contemporary art of the time that suffered the impact of these trajectories. The proposal of this text was investigate the main power lines that crossed over Brazilian art between 1973 and 1983 and, in what measure these vectors remarked the evolution of Brazilian art environment since then, using as references Ronaldo Brito texts and Waltercio Caldas works of art. It was possible to verify some aspects that remarked the studied trajectories and, consequently, a part of Brazilian art scene of the time as the dialectic relations settled with the modern art experience, the changes that occurred in parallel to the establishment of a new international context and the strengthen of concerns tied to the role of the art market in artistic environment.

Expressionism was the major literary and art form in Germany beginning in the early 20th century. It flourished before and during World War I and continued to be the dominant art for of the Early Weimar Republic. By 1924, Neue Sachlichkeit replaced Expressionism as the dominant art form in Germany. Many Expressionists claimed they were never truly apart of Expressionism. However, in the periodization and canonization many of these young artists are labeled as Expressionist. This thesis examines the periodization and canonization of Expression in art, drama, and film and proves that Expressionism began much earlier than scholars believe and ended much later than 1924. This thesis examines the conflicts in Germany that led to Expressionism and which authors and artists influenced Expressionists. It will also show that after Expressionism ceased to be the dominant art form in Germany, many former Expressionists continued to use expressionistic form in their works but ceased to use expressionistic content. This thesis argues that both the periodization and canonization of Expressionism should be expanded to include all works that may be classified as having expressionistic form.

Text in English / The rise of the biotechnical and genomic revolution has motivated contemporary artists to explore the use of scientific methods as a medium for art-making. The application of these ground-breaking methods within the realm of contemporary art allows for the distortion that exists between life sciences and the imagination to become a reality. This practice is known as transgenic art. With biotechnology as the new playing-field for art comes a myriad of dangerous implications, ethical issues, questions of authorship and responsibilities. The transgenic artworks of Eduardo Kac entitled GFP Bunny (2000) and Genesis (1999) form the basis of the research. The main question posed in this research explores the purpose of transgenic art and the unavoidable impact thereof on society. Social awareness of ethical issues surrounding this type of art-making is addressed. The poignancy of the study lies in debates deliberately introduced by the artist, but also unintended controversial issues that surface from the creation of living artworks. / Art History, Visual Arts & Musicology / M.A. (Visual Arts)

Procura-se demonstrar de que maneira organiza-se seu programa iconográfico até 1731 e como esse conjunto de imagens devocionais e pintura decorativa atende às necessidades político-ideológicas do clero português na seqüência imediata da criação do Patriarcado de Lisboa em 1716. Ainda, ressaltamos a ligação de membros dos altos setores da administração religiosa portuguesa com as referidas irmandades, lembrando o exemplo do primeiro patriarca de Lisboa, D. Tomás de Almeida, ligado intimamente aos quadros da Irmandade de clérigos do Porto. Apresentamos variado registro de imagens e análises cuidadosas do patrimônio artístico das irmandades portuguesas ¿ Porto, Amarante e Viana do Castelo ¿ e daquelas instaladas na América portuguesa ¿ Salvador, Recife e Mariana ¿ sublinhando a importância do programa de imagens patrocinado por estas agremiações, que interpretamos como manipulação político-teológica da iconografia da Autoridade Religiosa, opção oportuna durante os anos do reinado de D. João V e da organização da administrção eclesiástica na América Portuguesa ao longo do século XVIII / Doutorado / Historia da Arte / Doutor em História

The dissertation explores the work of two African artists: Lamidi O. Fakeye a Yoruba wood carver, and Ahmed M. Shibrain a Sudanese painter, as an exemplary development within African art during the second half of the 20th century. It examines their works through the sense of "tradition" as it is seen within the context of their cultures and their histories. It considers their works to be a reflection of their time, a hybrid art and a new tradition emerging within their respective cultures as a result of change in their societies. It argues against the notion that separates their art from their traditions and their histories based on the artificial barriers of "authenticity" in the literature on African art and the various categories that are related to it. It ponders on the contradictions and complexity that this situation has created and demonstrated that these categories negate historical realities. The dissertation is in two parts. The first part describes and analyses some of Lamidi's Christian and secular carvings. His work is placed in its appropriate historical perspective by revealing its close relationship to the carvings of his predecessors in terms of themes, design, content and clients. Innovation and change in his work through time and space is revealed. In the second part, the dissertation defines the connectivity of Shibrain's work to his tradition and its history, and that of his fellow artists who contributed to the development of a new trend in Sudanese art. It discusses their work on the basis of the 'idea' of art in Islam, their training and their heritage of decorative art and Arabic calligraphy. It argues that innovation, influence, borrowing and adaptation, are part of progress in art through the ages.

Wassily Kandinsky wrote Über das Geistige in der Kunst, in 1912, and was translated from German into English by Michael Sadler. Naming it at first, “The Art of Spiritual Harmony” in 1914 it is known as, Concerning the Spiritual in Art. He wrote color and music theories based on angles, synesthetic experiences, subjective instincts, chromotherapy, and shapes. Kandinsky’s theories are worth continuing to research and bring forth into the new generation of technology where we can see music as numerical expressions. The goal of this iPhone Application is to teach users the relationship between color and music based on Kandinsky’s theories. / Includes bibliography. / Thesis (M.F.A.)--Florida Atlantic University, 2015. / FAU Electronic Theses and Dissertations Collection
