Arte, prazer e bisturi: construção corporal através da body modification

In view of a field research carried out by a team connected to the universe of body modification, it is possible to discern some uses and meanings linked to these forms of body interventions. Body modification or body change is part of the circuit of piercings and tattoos, although they are socially less thinned and more extreme, like scarifications, subcutaneous implants, bifurcated tongues, surfaces and body suspensions. The aim of this paper is to cast an anthropological glance on these practices, joining at the same context all the subjects involved with these techniques, placing them inside the same relational focus and capturing their journeys and trajectories. The discussions are concentrated on the notion of body building and urban life style. Ideas as personal distinctness and prestige imitation are also present in this universe, as well as matters attached to genre, pleasure, art, and to the so-called alternative circuit . This way, the ethnography so far presented here, reveals the complex and contemporaneous character of these practices of body markings in which the body appears as the central element in the experiences of the subjects of this study

Bodily Experience and Restricted Conditions in Contemporary Art

The Doctoral research was carried out with the primary purpose of reviewing past practice designs and for identifying how body movements contributes to these designs. The context in which the body movements are understood are that of discipline enforced by culture and other physio-biological restraints. A discussion on the relationships of body experience in restricted conditions are carried out, which includes the interaction between movement and space in the application of painting, moulding, biological markers, and moving images. The discipline, socially acceptable practices and regulations present in the researcher’s personal life and culture frame the artworks and a fascinating exploration of dynamics between freedom of movement in artwork construction and restrain of behaviour has been analyzed. In the process of art production, significant points discussed were with respect to the identification, succession and repetition of habitual acts. In addition, bodily movement could be considered as a synthesis of spatiality and temporality. The key point which contains the elements of time and space remains relevant to my creative practice and theoretical research. The core interest of my practice is in understanding the settings and simple rules for bodily movement, which is inspired by the past and forms a possible creation for the future. In this research, the attempt was not to display a comprehensive understanding on how body influences the design of art but rather to explain how understanding body movements provides a trace of my works, from origin, the working process and to completion. Relevant artworks and reflection of personal experiences are discussed as needed to help the reader gain more insight on the interactions of body in art creations.

Entre poésie, réalisme magique et postmodernisme : Madman Claro suivi de Les Fleurs compliquées

Dans la première partie du présent mémoire, l’essai Entre poésie, réalisme magique et postmodernisme : Madman Claro, je tente d’abord de définir les concepts du réalisme magique, de la littérature postmoderne et de la « mi-fiction » (qui englobe peut-être les deux premiers) afin de situer l’oeuvre de l’écrivain et traducteur français Claro au sein du spectre réflexif-mimétique que je propose. Je décris ensuite sa vision de l’écriture et de la littérature avant d’analyser la dissolution des personnages principaux du roman CosmoZ entraînée par le mauvais traitement qu’ils reçoivent aux mains des médecins et du Magicien d’Oz. J’essaie de montrer en quoi ces devenirs-autres sont liés au début et à la fin du monde (qui, lui, ne cesse de recommencer) dans cet ouvrage fabuleusement réaliste où Claro rend des personnages fictifs réels et les fait vivre des aventures rocambolesques et tragiques au début du XXe siècle en Europe et en Amérique. La deuxième partie du mémoire, intitulée Les Fleurs compliquées, est un recueil de nouvelles surréalistes qui demeurent toutefois ancrées dans le monde contemporain et qui mettent parfois en scène des versions diffractées de figures réelles. Alors que le premier récit mêle des contraintes formelles à des questions ontologiques et généalogiques, la deuxième nouvelle, davantage marquée par l’oralité, porte sur une expérience extracorporelle dans une boîte de nuit montréalaise. S’ensuit alors une version satirique et cauchemardesque de la désastreuse tournée 777 de la chanteuse Rihanna, rebaptisée La Reina, qui culmine en un combat inspiré des légendes amérindiennes. La dernière nouvelle comporte six courtes parties enchâssées racontant un même récit de façon non linéaire. Globalement, je vise une certaine saturation baroque : le travail sur l’image, les élans imaginatifs débridés et le rythme jouent donc un rôle important dans ces récits. Sur le plan thématique, je consacre autant mon attention aux silences éloquents du quotidien qu’au legs du colonialisme occidental sur la culture populaire d’aujourd’hui, le tout présenté d’un point de vue féministe et volontairement « ex-centrique ». Enfin, j’essaie, sur un fond d’humour tirant sur le noir, d’accorder une place aux voix marginalisées tout en évitant l’écueil du sentimentalisme et du moralisme sermonneur.

Der Prothesengott - Subjektivität und Transplantationsmedizin

Im Dezember 1997 veröffentlichte die Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung den als Rechtsgutachten abgefassten Beitrag des Heidelberger Juristen Friedrich-Christian Schoeder (Schroeder 1997). Die Frage, die Autor und Zeitung eher spielerisch als aus konkretem Anlass umtrieb, galt dem rechtlichen Status eines Menschen, dessen Kopf auf den Körper eines anderen Menschen transplantiert wurde. Medizinisch waren und sind solche Eingriffe noch nicht durchführbar, aber immerhin schienen sie für den Autor und die Zeitung eine Aktualität zu besitzen. Auch bei folgenden Auseinandersetzungen, die in den Medien um die Konsequenzen der medizinisch-technischen Entwicklung geführt wurden, geraten Bewusstsein, Subjektivität und Körper zum statischem Abbild des Gegenwärtigen, sie werden nicht als Substrat historischer Prozesse begriffen. Ohne den Begriff der Vergangenheit plaudern sich eine Vielzahl Autoren durch die Zukunft. In dieser muss auch der auf einen fremden Körper übertragene Kopf als Rechtssubjekt verwaltet werden. Aber wie verändert sich der Mensch, durch eine medizinische Maßnahme vervollständigt, die dauerhaft seine Körpergrenze verschiebt? Die Transplantationsmedizin ist bei der Auseinandersetzung um Subjektivität nicht nur dann von besonderem Interesse, wenn ein Kopf auf, sondern auch, wenn ein gespendetes Organ in einen fremden Körper verpflanzt wird. Die Trennung von Fremd und Eigen, Außen und Innen ist eng mit dem Zivilisationsprozess und der Subjektwerdung verbunden. Was körperlich durch medizinische Maßnahmen verschoben wird, die Grenze zwischen Außen und Innen, ist die Bedingung der Möglichkeit von Subjektivität. Der Titel dieser Arbeit, Der Prothesengott, verweist auf die individuellen und zivilisatorischen Leistungen, die vollbracht werden mussten, um mit Fug und Recht „Ich“ sagen zu können. Der Begriff Prothesengott ist der Freudschen Schrift Das Unbehagen in der Kultur entnommen. Freud schreibt dort vom Ideal des Prothesengottes und das erste Kapitel der hier vorgelegten Arbeit ist der Entfaltung dieses Ideals gewidmet. Dieses Begriffspaar hat mehr Bedeutungsnuancen, als Freud an Ort und Stelle entwickelte. Es umfasst die Bedeutung von Mythos und Gott als Prothesen, als Ideale, die den Menschen vervollständigten. Aber auch die Bedeutung von Theorien, Ideen, schlicht Idealen als Prothesen Gottes ist angesprochen, und damit der Versuch, den Verlust Gottes auszugleichen. Und zu guter Letzt benennt es das Ideal eines Gottes durch Prothesen, die Apotheose, wie Freud sie meinte: Als Vergötzung der Prothesen, mit denen der Mensch sich vervollständigt, um sich nach dem Tod Gottes selber ein Versprechen auf Erlösung sein zu können. Mit dieser Entfaltung soll die Zivilisation wie die individuelle Entwicklung als ein Prozess rekonstruiert werden, in dem Subjektivität gleichzeitig hervorgebracht und beschädigt wird. Diese Dialektik von Zivilisation und Barbarisierung findet ihren vorläufigen Höhepunkt im Fortschreiten der technischen Mittel unserer Zeit. Zur empirischen Fassung der historisch vorfindlichen Subjektivität wurden Patienten der Transplantationseinheit der Universität Leipzig gebeten, in den ersten drei Monaten nach der Operation Tagebücher auszufüllen. Diese Tagebücher wurden mit statistischen und hermeneutischen Methoden ausgewertet. Die Transplantationserfahrung offenbart sich in den Tagebüchern zwar als besondere, aber in eine Vielzahl von Techniken der Körpergestaltung eingebettete Maßnahme. Neben einer kritischen Würdigung des methodischen Vorgehens wird im fünften Kapitel die Transplantationserfahrung in den Kontext anderer Forschungsergebnisse zur Gestaltung des Körpers gestellt. Deren kritische Diskussion und die Transplantationserfahrungen bieten einen Ausblick darauf, was Eingedenken der Natur im Subjekt heute bedeuten kann.

A experiência no Tai Chi: possibilidades para pensar o corpo sem órgãos e a preparação do ator

Although research in the field of performing arts has substantially advanced over the last century, the actor, in general, still needs a repertoire of specific references to guide or support his practice. But how the actor must work the material foundation of his art that is his own body? Starting from a prerogative of a idiosyncrasy that is part of theater, this study intend, from the description and reflection about one physical experience with the Tai Chi, to weave relations between this experience and the possible developments of acting preparation. This research is also aimed to highlight the elements of connection between the principles that rules Tai Chi and the body without organs, idealized by Artaud, with the perspective of pointing possible contributions for actors work. The work presented here refers to a qualitative study that considers the body experience in practice of Tai Chi as a reference to dialogue and reflect about the acting preparation. The process of acting preparation presupposes a constant redoing of the body by certain practices. My experience with Tai Chi within this research allowed me verify that the work from established body techniques could be a way of technical preparation for the actor. As the body conscience expands, Tai Chi promotes a greater freedom of creation and expression, giving the actor the possibility of experience the body without organs, the artistic equivalent of the daily body, present, conscious, the organic foundation of emotions, in wich it is possible the materiality of ideas

A Poética do corpo no mito e na dança butô: por uma educação sensível

The thesis presents the body poetry and its inscribing in the myth and Butô dance. The argumentation highlights the sensitive dimension present in these itineraries, as a possibility to operate the emergency of knowing inscribed in the body, bringing a kind of rationality that links the fragments, that allows the knowing to break through the barriers of disciplinary isolation, that abandons the certainties and goes through the ways of creation and that gives the body new space and time, featuring epistemological elements, ethical and esthetical, that can permit a sensitive education. All along the way, we comprehend by sensitive education, a education that considers the relinking of logical, analogical, symbolic and artistic knowledge and therefore reconsiders the own act of knowing as a continuous and inconcluded process. That sensitive education is also understood as retaking the body experience, its sensitive nature, as well as being meaningful to reading the world. It includes the body memory, its history and creativity, opening it to innovation, change, sense amplification and dialogue with other bodies and world, because it is within them. It is about an investigation of phenomenologic nature, that dialogues philosophy and art, pointing breakdowns of this reflection foe the body and education studies. We find it necessary to notice the body language, that allows one to think through movements, articulate a thought that is risen from articulations, guts and all the body. This incarnated reason starts the expressive body action, that makes us move to mean, communicate, inaugurate senses. Among these senses, we present a possibility of approach of the elements of Butô dance teaching and physical education, as ways of sensitive education showings of body poetry

A experiência do corpo na dança butô: indicadores para pensar a educação

Neste artigo pretende-se refletir, apoiado em alguns ensaios de Merleau-Ponty e com base na fenomenologia, acerca do corpo e das narrativas e saberes que nele se anunciam na dança butô — modalidade que combina dança e teatro, criada no Japão na década de 1950. De modo geral, o corpo foi compreendido como elemento acessório no processo educativo, e essa compreensão ainda é predominante no contexto atual. Nossa reflexão tenta apontar outros caminhos de entendimento do corpo na educação, a partir de uma atitude que busca superar o instrumentalismo e ampliar as referências educativas, ao considerar a fenomenologia do corpo, e sua relação com o conhecimento sensível, como aquela capaz de amplificar a textura corpórea dos processos de conhecimento. Considerando a experiência do corpo na dança butô, apresentamos indicadores para pensar a educação, relacionados à experiência estética. Dentre eles destacamos: a plasticidade do corpo, a sua produção incessante de ressignificações, a sua abertura à inovação, a sua condição mutante, a sua ruptura com a mecanização gestual, a sua não dissociação entre homem e mundo, pensamento e sentimento. Todos esses aspectos que reúnem o saber recursivo, integrativo e criativo do corpo, são indicadores para pensarmos na educação, por tratar-se de uma nova possibilidade de leitura do real, a partir da linguagem do gesto, em que dialogam saberes e práticas inscritos na experiência corporal
