Abstract

This project intends to develop a study about human presence in visual Theater performances, considering the work done by the Didactic Theater of Unesp based on the research conducted by Prof. Dr. Wagner Cintra entitled Visual Theater: From matter to Form. The importance of research, which refers to the fact that the human presence in such a universe lies between the actor and the puppet, raises issues relevant not only for the theater, but also, by Its hybrid aspect, not yet studied, like a plastic element, of the Visual Arts.
