Mulheres, práticas de resistência cultural e ocupação simbólica: as flâneuses da Baixada

Abstract

This dissertation reflects about the women's movement around the city, due to the cultural events that they promote and occupy in Baixada Fluminense. Through the concept of flâneur and the women who assume the flânerie, called the flâneuses, I think about how it is the relation between woman and the streets of the city and how the mechanisms of cultural resistance arise in this relationship, when bringing to the metropolitan region of Rio de Janeiro and its specificities. Thus, I understand the concepts that involve the practices of cultural resistance carried out by women in the context of the cultural collectives of Baixada Fluminense, when creating events on the streets or out off the streets. I propose to investigate the street as a physical and symbolic space occupied by these women, and their artistic and political practices, which embrace the concept of artivism in a feminist thinking.
