Título: Jogos cruzados: poéticas da vitalidade nas cosmogonias afro-diaspóricas Autor: Silva, Nelson Almeida da Primeiro orientador: Mendes, Eloisa Brantes Bacellar Abstract: This dissertation proposes an approach that bridges art and ancestry, drawing from the notions of vitality and the crossroads as central categories within Afro-diasporic worldviews. The research is grounded in the artistic practice entitled Jogos Cruzados (Crossed Games), developed since 2016, composed of ephemeral drawings made on the ground of public spaces—especially crossroads and squares—using materials such as glitter, salt, charcoal, and powdered pigments. These games operate as spaces of symbolic and energetic activation, calling forth Black memories into modes of resistance and creation. The dissertation is conceived as a theoretical-practical crossroads, interlacing ancestral knowledge by articulating vitality as a poetic force. Drawing from the concept of vitality, and in dialogue with practices of Afro-diasporic creators such as Leda Maria Martins, Muniz Sodré, and Fu-Kiau, the work challenges disciplinary boundaries and proposes an artistic experience oriented toward the production of full, abundant life Instituição: Universidade do Estado do Rio de Janeiro Tipo do documento: Dissertação

Título: Memória, imagem e a segunda morte Autor: Kurz Junior, Rudolf Alois Primeiro orientador: Paixão, Alexandre Sá Barretto da Abstract: Memory, Image, and the Second Death is a research that aims to study the relationships between memory, image, and death through the creation of a theoretical apparatus combined with artistic investigations. The aim is to understand how physical traces, such as analog photographs and objects belonging to people who have died, maintain, in a certain way, a presence through these materials, and especially the affective/mnemonic connection of these items with people who lived with the deceased. One of the key points of this research is the moment of extinction of these material memories, putting an end to this other form of “presence,” this material “existence” after death, which will be referred to in this research as the Second Death. The research debates such issues in the light of classical Western philosophy in each of the themes addressed and presents artistic references in dialogue with theoretical issues Instituição: Universidade do Estado do Rio de Janeiro Tipo do documento: Dissertação

Título: Investigações sobre a invisualidade na arte educação: reflexões sobre práticas de sensibilização à sinestesia Autor: Oliveira, Virginia Jesus de Primeiro orientador: Frade, Isabela Nascimento Abstract: The research aimed to problematize the relationship between visuality and invisuality in art education, addressing themes, institutions, and objects from the fields of art and the various forms of visual impairment and blindness, through the creation of a pedagogical laboratory in art education. This educational space was part of a project developed within two NGOs in Rio de Janeiro—Lectícia Fonseca and A Aldeia da Criança—located in the neighborhoods of Engenho Novo and Tijuca, during the period from 2019 to 2024. The LEA – Experimental Art Laboratory focused on contemporary art as its primary field of investigation, developing proposals for sensory awareness, "(re)performativity", creation, and analysis. The research was thus directed towards inclusion, fostering perceptual experimentation involving visual occlusion and the enhancement of other senses, working to de-hierarchize perception. The regular workshops I conducted were transformed into an active laboratory space. The feedback loop between field research, bibliographic research, and laboratory experimentation was fully integrated, forming a responsive and interrelated whole. This space also enabled closer engagement between these children and young people and our cultural system, allowing them to cultivate a stronger sense of belonging and positioning them as protagonists within the spaces they inhabit and activate. Furthermore, the experience fostered their receptiveness and attentiveness to the multiplicity of bodies that exist in the world. The primary outcome was a critical reflection on these practices, which took place in different settings, and on how they can be interconnected with the aim of joining forces to foster dialogue with children and youth around the theme of inclusion through art Instituição: Universidade do Estado do Rio de Janeiro Tipo do documento: Dissertação

Título: Sapatáticas: escritas trêmulas para Bárbara Hammer Autor: Costa, Bárbara Thomaz de Rezende Primeiro orientador: César, Marisa Flórido Abstract: This research investigates the work of the American lesbian experimental filmmaker and video artist Barbara Hammer (1939-2019) in its queer archival-performative dimension, having as a guiding thread her trilogy of essayistic films called Trilogy of Invisible Histories, composed of Nitrate Kisses (1992, 16mm, 60’), Tender Fictions (1995, 16mm, 58’) and History Lessons (2000, 16mm, 62’), in articulation with handwritten letters between “barbarians”: from this one, who is registered here as a white sapatão-researcher from South America, to Hammer herself. As interludes between chapters, these letters raise the critical discussion of the political elements and images brought by the films Instituição: Universidade do Estado do Rio de Janeiro Tipo do documento: Dissertação
