[en] RUMOR OF ARCHIVE: ROSÁRIO FUSCO, C EST LA VIE! / [pt] RUMOR DE ARQUIVO: ROMANCE E CONTÁGIO: ROSÁRIO FUSCO, C EST LA VIE!

CECILIA GUSMAO WELLISCH 18 May 2017 (has links)
[pt] Rumor de Arquivo: Rosário Fusco, c est la vie! encena por meio de arranjos, vozes e máquinas mediadoras, um trânsito entre O Agressor, obra de ficção de Rosário Fusco e a vida do escritor. Exploram-se, neste contexto, documentos de arquivo em torno do autor, especialmente inclinado ao recorte de cartas inéditas (e esparsas) - mantidas entre o mesmo e Mário de Andrade, de 1927 a 1940 - sempre a explorar e transformar privações, desvios, apagamentos, invariavelmente impostos à pesquisa biográfica, como nascedouro de invenções casadas com reflexões, acerca do objeto de pesquisa. Diante da ruína de arquivo, o autor, contaminado por sua personagem David, inscreve, no espaço ficcional, seu impulso desejante. Busca, assim, refazer o rastro – ou resistir ao inevitável mal que apaga a memória – deixando um traço de verdade. Ao seguir os passos da Crítica Biográfica, Rumor de Arquivo funda um teatro de, usando expressões de Eneida Maria de Souza e, secundariamente, de Philippe Lejeune, invenção e estetização da memória (...), mentindo-verdadeiramente. / [en] Rumor de Arquivo: Rosário Fusco, c est la vie! stages by means of arrangements, voices and mediatory machines, a transit among the fictional work O Agressor by Fusco and the author s life. In this context, the author s archival documents are explored, aiming specially in a collection of unknown (and sparse) letters, traded between the author and Mário de Andrade, from 1927 to 1940, with the intent to explore and transform privations, deviations, deletions, which are invariably imposed on biographical research, as a source of inventions related to reflections over the object of research and its subsequent manifestations. Rosário Fusco s aggressor impels DAVID, the aggressor, to an open scene, exposed, a denouncer of the mediating voices; Standard, already re-harmonize and altered in its irrepressible virus. Facing a form of archive fever, as a trail is craved, a sparkle of truth ignites in contrast with inherent and unconditional restrictions. Following in the footsteps of Biographical Criticism, Rumor of Archive establishes a theater, and employing the expressions of Eneida Maria de Souza and secondly Philippe Lejeune, invention and aestheticization of memory (…) truthfully-lies.

PSEUDOLOGY: LYING IN ART AND CULTURE

Prus, Benjamin Peter Fodden 16 November 2017 (has links)
This dissertation draws upon Western literature in critical theory, aesthetics, art theory, and art history to explore how lying can foster aesthetic experience and the sociopolitical effects of this experience. It nominates the idea of pseudology—lying as an art—and outlines its distinguishing features from the dawn of postmodernism to contemporary practices. This study demonstrates an analysis of lying premised on an understanding of aesthetics as caught up in the wider issues of public pedagogy and everyday politics. Taking as case studies specific works of Marcel Duchamp, Robert Rauschenberg, VALIE EXPORT, and Carol Duncan, this dissertation argues for the narrative framing of artwork as paramount for its reception. As well, by examining the artistic mystifications of Mierle Laderman Ukeles, Guillermo Gómez-Peña, Coco Fusco, Joshua Schwebel, and Iris Häussler, this dissertation analyzes the use of pseudology in institutional critique. The study finds that perfidious practices can point to the importance of the relational boundary between what is real/unreal, highlight the social construction of this boundary’s aesthetic aspects, and reveal the ways in which each of us are active in the construction of a shared reality. Ultimately, our active framing of everyday life and the affective nature of our construction of a shared reality has been problematized by a contemporary prevalence of lying in the realms of public culture and politics. Pseudology reveals the power of narrative framing. The pseudological artworks discussed here expose, as models for the political aesthetic of lying, the need to debate the very tenets of reality constantly and continually—an essential civic action in the ethical, communal relationships of a democracy. / Thesis / Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) / An analysis of the use of lying as an artistic technique.

Way of the Butterfly: A Journey towards Transformation through Self-portraits In-Between

Koshikawa, Masami 01 January 2015 (has links)
It has not been easy for me to talk about myself or describe my feelings or thoughts. Coming from Japan, a collective society, we typically are not raised to do so. Throughout the MFA program at UCF, I have shared my feelings and thoughts through my work. It is important to discuss and inform others of our cultural similarities and differences so that we may gain a better understanding of each other. This process has helped me grow not only on an artistic level, but also on a personal level. My journey towards integration has led me to a meaningful studio practice, which has allowed my work to bridge the gap between Western and Eastern artistic sensibilities. At the beginning of the MFA program, my mother sent many boxes of origami from Japan. As I started incorporating my mother’s origami into my work, I found myself identifying with the origami butterfly. My realization is that the person I am now is not the person I was when I began this journey. My wish for you, the reader, is to go along with me as I tell you the story of my transformation.
