No. of bitstreams: 1 SANDRA CHECRUSKI SOUZA.pdf: 14500557 bytes, checksum: dda4119ce73fba7bb2d5d00149f98511 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2014-09-29 / The present paper aims to reflect about the creative process of visual artist Leya Mira Brander (born 1976 in São Paulo), in an attempt to unwrap the gestures that turn her unique as a printmaker. Among the various possibilities of cropping, we chose the approach of the technical procedures involved in the making of images, the relationship between image and memory and the use of the word as a poetic recurrence. Divided into three chapters, the first one examines the making of the engraving in its implications and consequences, and the montage and procedural methodology in her work, based on theoretical considerations by Georges DidiHuberman and Walter Benjamin. The second chapter addresses the compositional visual elements of the artist's work in the light of image and memory, emphasizing her thematic preferences and references involving the gestures of citation and metamorphosis. The result are images that derive from her own universe as well as from the mention of icons in the history of art. In the same chapter, we also seek to reflect on the legacy of irony and allegory present in her work, whose theoretical shield poured the writings of Giorgio Agamben and Pedro Duarte. The third and final chapter is intended to place the word and its uses in the creation of the artist process, ending with words that manifest as reports of love, analyzed in the light of the writings of Roland Barthes. / Esta pesquisa procurou refletir sobre o processo criativo da artista visual Leya Mira Brander (São Paulo, 1976), numa tentativa de desembrulhar os gestos que a singularizam como gravurista. Dentre as diversas possibilidades de recorte, optou-se pela abordagem dos procedimentos técnicos envolvidos na fatura de suas imagens, pela relação entre a imagem e a memória e pelo uso da palavra como recorrência poética. Divididos em três capítulos, o primeiro deles analisa a fatura da gravura em metal em suas implicações e desdobramentos, e a montagem como metodologia processual no conjunto de sua obra, o qual foi embasado pelas considerações dos teóricos Georges Didi-Huberman e Walter Benjamin. No segundo capítulo, abordaram-se os elementos visuais compositivos da obra da artista sob o horizonte da imagem e da memória, ressaltando-se suas preferências temáticas e referências diante dos gestos de citação e metamorfose de imagens advindas tanto de seu universo particular quanto da menção a ícones da história da arte. Ainda nesse capítulo, buscou-se refletir sobre o legado da ironia e da alegoria presentes em seus trabalhos, cujo amparo teórico se serviu dos escritos de Giorgio Agamben e Pedro Duarte. Ao terceiro e último capítulo, destinou-se o lugar à palavra e seus usos no processo de criação da artista, finalizando com aqueles que se manifestam como relatos de amor, analisados sob a luz dos escritos de Roland Barthes.

The master thesis is devoted to a nontraditional, however, in the todays world to a very current topic, arms industry and its support. The thesis connects the theoretical concept of the strategic trade policy (defined by P. Krugman or J. Brander) to its practical interpretation and application in the defence and security industry. The first chapter explains the strategic trade policy using the Brander Spencer analysis. The topic of the second chapter is strategic industries and this chapter answers the question whether the defence and security industry is a strategic industry or not. The third chapter analyses the possibilities of the support of DSI and compares approaches of different EU member states. The last chapter is devoted to the solution of this problem. The main contribution of this thesis is a new interpretation of the strategic trade policy, analysis of the importance of the defence and security industry and its support and suggestion of practical measures for Czech companies and for the Czech Ministry of Defence.
