Representación de la abyección y lo monstruoso, en los videoclips de Floria Sigismondi

La presente tesis emprende la investigación de lo abyecto y monstruoso en las representaciones visuales del cuerpo, desarrollados en los videoclips dirigidos por Floria Sigismondi. El recorrido inicia con el estudio minucioso de cuatro videoclips, pertenecientes a bandas y artistas de diversos géneros musicales. A nivel metodológico se ha partido del estudio teórico conceptual de varios autores en torno al cuerpo, representación, abyección y monstruo. Como segundo paso se procede con la observación de las formas y representaciones, destacando los elementos del lenguaje audiovisual propios del video musical artístico. Finalmente se analizan los contenidos vinculados a las transformaciones corporales contemporáneas, a través de las cuales se evidencia el desplazamiento de los conceptos modernos y sistemas absolutistas hacia lo fragmentario, discontinuo y multiforme, vinculados a la construcción de un nuevo tipo humano.

As the foundation of the University of São Paulo completes 75 years, this article describes the history of a mansion at 463 Glette Boulevard, in São Paulo city, where several undergraduate courses of the University's Philosophy, Sciences and Letters Faculty operated until 1969. The first building of the school of Chemistry was erected there, 70 years ago. A brief retrospective of the Department of Chemistry at that place is given. The mansion was torn down by the middle of the 1970s, but it remained as a symbol of the school identity in the memory of all those who studied there.
