- A morte e a vida dos monumentos soviéticosPublication . MOREIRA, Inês; CARPENTIER, Nico; MELIORANSKI, Ruth; RUNNEL, PilleMonuments and memorials are architectural communicational gestures of political representation affirmed in public spaces and interpelating citizens to reflect on past events. Memorials attempt to freeze time and its permanence is legitimated by historical/political significance, celebrated in cyclic official acts and ceremonies. If the projection and construction of monuments is an exercise of authorship and power relations, the projection and construction of memory is a more diffuse and collective exercise of celebration, denial, resignification and erasure of past events, and, as well, of shifting narratives on the past. In this essay we address recent troubles around a specific selection of Soviet Monuments situated in the new republics defining the western limit of former Soviet Union, particularly in Estonia, Latvia and Ukraine, based on our field observations and depictions, which we have been publishing in the last months.
- REFLEXÕES EM TORNO DE EXEMPLOS DA REPRESENTAÇÃO, NA ARTE CONTEMPORÂNEA, DO FUNCIONAMENTO DA MEMÓRIA COMO ATIVIDADE CEREBRALPublication . Alberto de Matos Trindade, CarlosNeste artigo, após uma introdução geral na qual abordamos conceitos básicos sobre a memória e o cérebro, os esforços desenvolvidos no século XX para entender os mecanismos subjacentes ao funcionamento da memória humana, referindo de passagem os progressos alcançados com as pesquisas levadas a cabo pelas neurociências, que têm tornado possível, entre outros aspectos, uma melhor compreensão de quais as áreas do cérebro envolvidas nas etapas de aquisição e consolidação da informação (e sua evocação), analisamos exemplos de obras de arte contemporâneas, de diferentes áreas de expressão, que nos permitem discutir alguns aspectos relativos ao funcionamento da memória, como actividade cerebral. As obras abrangidas assentam em modelos filosóficos ou psicológicos, num estudo pioneiro sobre a relação da memória com as emoções dos cientistas americanos Roger Brown & James Kulik, que introduziram na literatura científica o termo “flashbulb memories”, e nas possibilidades abertas pela utilização de tecnologias de imagiologia científica.
- APPROPRIATION ART. A PROPÓSITO DO QUE PODEREMOS DESIGNAR COMO APROPRIAÇÕES PARADAMNATIVASPublication . Alberto de Matos Trindade, CarlosNum ensaio de 1992 Benjamin Buchloh considerou o famoso Erased De Kooning Drawing (1953) de Robert Rauschenberg como o primeiro gesto inaugurador, e emblema, do acto apropriacionista pós-moderno. Pela nossa parte, entendemos que o seu gesto deve ser distinguido das práticas apropriacionistas correntes, e propomos neste artigo o conceito de apropriação paradamnativa para classificá-lo, assim como a outros gestos posteriores, de outros artistas, que podem invocar o seu exemplo, e que analisamos no seguimento. Antes dessa análise, fazemos uma introdução ao aparecimento e desenvolvimento da Appropriation Art, surgida no contexto do denominado pós-modernismo, além de invocarmos alguns antecedentes históricos desta prática artística; ainda, por necessidade de contextualizar o conceito que introduzimos, e a análise sequente, abordamos as origens e o emprego da locução latina damnatio memoriae, desde a antiga civilização romana até às políticas modernas e contemporâneas. In a 1992 essay, Benjamin Buchloh considered Robert Rauschenberg's famous Erased De Kooning Drawing (1953) to be the first inaugurating gesture and emblem of the postmodern appropriationist act. For our part, we believe that his gesture should be distinguished from current appropriationist practices, and in this article we propose the concept of fordamnative appropriation to classify it, as well as other subsequent gestures by other artists who can invoke his example, and which we analyse below. Before this analysis, we will introduce the emergence and development of Appropriation Art, which arose in the context of what is known as postmodernism, as well as mentioning some of the historical antecedents of this artistic practice; in addition, in order to contextualise the concept we have introduced and the analysis that follows, we address the origins and use of the Latin phrase damnatio memoriae, from ancient Roman civilisation to modern and contemporary politics.
- Alain Resnais’s Enthropic ArchivePublication . Duarte, João OliveiraThe aim of this chapter is to show that Alain Resnais’s documentary Toute la Mémoire du Monde establishes a parallel, a symbiosis, between order and disorder, between classification and entropy. The bureaucratic procedures, the “Fordist model”, the shadowy figures in the documentary, all of which imbue the Bibliothèque Nationale with an air of science fiction, have a sombre counterpart: the badly lit basements, the chaotic boxes filled with books and papers awaiting retrieval. By comparing Resnais’s documentary, Borges’s Library of Babel and Kafka’s work, this chapter reveals a secret desire for the senseless chaos of unread books.
- TOMATO PROJECT. BODY. WORK. POVERTY.Publication . NEVES (ed.), EduardaThe body. As in Bong Joon-ho's film Parasite, poverty has a smell. The same smell. And those bodies stink. Houses too. Social inequality crosses these places. An inequality that is also transmissible. Palaces and islands. People's homes. Some are rich and others poor. Bodies of work, survival bodies, divided into production modes, sometimes transformed into modes of repression. The social worker is everywhere, from the factory to the university. A work without pleasure in a pleasureless body. As in the world of Kasper Hauser, in Herzog's film, there are bodies that do not know what a house is. They can only grasp a few words and still don’t understand poetry but they aspire to play the piano in the rhythm of breathing. Necessity and desire stand as common ground of what is building up in time, revealing obstinate ways of being. Resisting the trap of fear, noble flavours and smells of pleasure are called upon. They cause the vibration of another disorienting and subverting body. Appealing to the poetic function that disturbs hierarchical divisions, the alimentary body combines all delusions. It is the violent language of life that speaks through the organism (Nietzsche and Artaud), the orgy (Sade), the force field (Deleuze), through what is the product of social organization (Marx). In this body which we affirm as a chain without beginning or end, it is libertinage, the order of libertine life, desire’s lawless law, and not sexuality’s law, as Foucault so lucidly considered concerning Sade, which we must name here. All sounds of desire, all detachments of thought. Endless freedom. There are those who choose the realm of submissive and boring shadow zones. As in Parasite, we may continue to pretend that we are not relatives. We prefer, however, brighter pictures.
- ON CINEMA | 2022 Book of AbstractsPublication . MUGA, Henrique; SILVA, M. F. Costa e; SOUSA, Isolino (Eds.)The Film Studies research group of Arnaldo Araújo Research Centre (CEAA) has become interested in exploring the effects of rapidly changing technologies and platforms on the study of different issues in film, television and multimedia: how postgraduate researchers in a context of change face the relationship between cinema and narrative; how new technologies multimedia do affects the way that film and multimedia schools develop new pedagogies and methods in teaching film and audiovisual; and how do changes in the present affect relationship between film and other arts. In this context, in collaboration with departments of Theatre and Cinema and Theory and History of the Escola Superior Artística do Porto (ESAP), the national and international scientific community was invited to gather around three main themes: 1. Film and narrative: morphology, taxonomy, analytical, pragmatic, poetic, and narrative models on film and audiovisual. 2. The Cinema in dialogue with the arts: relationships between cinema and visual arts, theater, literature, photography, design and architecture. 3. Film in the schools: film and pedagogy, theory and history of cinema, new methodologies in teaching, film, audiovisual and multimedia schools and technology challenges, film production in the university context.
