Papelpapelpapel: contradispositivos poéticos de circulação pública

Abstract

This research seeks to inquire about printed art and its modes of circulation in the public space, relating, therefore, my artistic path in a theoretical approach that, having as key the materiality of paper, operates with concepts such as apparatus, counter-apparatus and document. A research trigger is the question “What happens between the paper-project-research and the paper-artwork?”, which aims at a critical analysis of the works and artistic actions contemplated here, in the context of printed art. In the first part, The role of paper, theoretical and methodological aspects of this research are approached, emphasizing the place and work of paper as a poetic support and its socio-cultural reach. In the other four parts of this research — Paper-printed, Paper-map, Paper-screen and Paper-newspaper — in a critical analysis of works of my authorship, in crossing with references of other artists, paper is discussed as a poetic (counter) device, operating at each stage of the creative processes discussed here.
