| Abstract | |
It is not simple to define a field of analysis to which to resort when the subject is the encounter of aesthetics and politics in current days, given that this relationship is disseminated in many various ways. The creation of spaces for interaction between social and artistic movements, of interventional actions and images are forms that overlap one another and constitute a rather complex field of creation. There are several ways into (and out of) this problem; in that regard, this research aims to apply and challenge many different approaches in order to build a line of thought about the political and aesthetical powers that emerge from that encounter. The situations that ground the thought process developed in this thesis may be diverse, but they show a correlation between the discussions that put in check the hegemonic ways of existence--a certain relationship connecting the body itself, art, politics, and the belief in \"what is city,\" among other issues--and the act of creating intelligibility for these problems: how to promote the circulation of the substance produced by a divergent relationship with life, and how to capture this so the insurgent sensibilities can compose a collective imagination? In the effort to draft an answer to these questions, authors from several fields, collectives from many countries, and various social movements were gathered, presenting strategies, methods, values, and processes that become more and more numerous due to the urgency of expressing what \"doing politics\" means in the present day, and how inseparable that power is from the aesthetic dimension.
