Abstract

This research proposal aims to investigate the contemporary context of imagery construction from the glitch art movement, as it explores operational and/or contextual errors and displacements as a poetic operational element. First, we will make a bibliographic review on the term glitch, to contextualize the processes of creation, problematizing the incorporation of visual patterns by the cultural industry. Next, we will investigate the technical and procedural resources through the analysis of artworks from different artists (Sabato Visconti, Giselle Beiguelman), seeking to explore the artistic production of glitch art, that uses obsolete technological devices in its composition, with the intention of exploring and articulating the procedural potential of the artistic movement as an originating thought for new post-image configurations.(AU)
