Lygia Pape e Hélio Oiticica: conversações e fricções poéticas

Abstract

This work objects to exam Lygia Pape s pieces: ovo, divisor, roda dos prazeres, tecelares, tteia nº 1, caixa de baratas, caixa de formigas, caixa brasil, ballets neoconcretos, new houses, films and experimental vídeos, in poetic connections with Hélio Oiticica s parangolés, penetráveis, bilaterais, relevos espaciais, metaesquemas, núcleos, bólides, cosmococas and tropicália. The analysis is made from the anthropological interest of those artists, their engagement with the formation for a Brazil-language and the strong experimentalism in their proposals; it focus the movement, the chromatic question, the construction of worlds , the spectator s role in their works and the presence of Brazilian s adversity as a incentive for their productions. Therefore, pieces like divisor, tecelares, tteia nº 1, parangolés and penetráveis are referred in different moments of the text, since they deal with many of the questions proposed, while works like the metaesquemas, the bilaterais and the relevos espaciais appear only in one chapter, being analyzed only by one perspective, although there are other possibilities. To support the visual readings, are used bibliographic sources, as well as writings of theoreticians like Aby Warburg, Georges Didi-Huberman, Stanley Cavell, Vilém Flusser, Ronaldo Brito, Guy Brett, Rodrigo Naves, Paola Berenstein Jacques, Michel Collot, among others.
