A word created by artist H?lio Oiticica and registered by him on the National Register of Trademarks and Patents, was later used to a name the eponymous song by Caetano Veloso and also in this fertile cultural impulse at the turn of the sixties to the seventies on last century, who had the intention to make creating new spaces and simultaneously rethink the spatial cuts of Brazilian culture, encouraging them to be much more than a myth of a paradise within a lush new look of a tropical truth. / Tropic?lia diz respeito ? tentativa de compreens?o do Brasil e de uma identidade nacional caracterizada pela transitoriedade de tempos e espa?os, de a??o rizom?tica, de um perp?tuo esgar?amento de fronteiras culturais e que ao mesmo instante age de forma sincr?nica a inst?ncias como a da pol?tica e ao do social. A palavra criada pelo artista pl?stico H?lio Oiticica e por ele registrada no registro nacional de marcas e patentes a posteriori, foi usada para nomear a can??o hom?nima de Caetano Veloso e tamb?m a esse f?rtil impulso cultural na virada da d?cada de sessenta para os anos setenta, que teve a pretens?o de formular novos espa?os de cria??o e simultaneamente repensar os recortes espaciais da cultura brasileira, instigando-os a serem bem mais que um mito de um para?so verdejante dentro de uma nova mirada de uma verdade tropical.
