ARTE OCUPA: práticas criativas e ocupações no desenho da cidade

O dossiê está aberto não apenas à ótica das artes, mas também à abordagem do tema proposto desde o viés dos estudos do urbanismo, arquitetura, sociologia, antropologia, psicologia, história etc.

O tema abordará obras, ações e projetos artísticos, que almejam contar histórias.

Artist Editions: Approaches

Artist Editions: Approaches : It brings together articles and essays that deal with the complexities of artists 'publications considering artists' books and their multiple forms (textual, graphic, object-books or even “non-books”). The formats of newspaper, leaflet, poster, postcard, fanzine etc., appropriated and subverted by the artists, are in that same universe. The characteristic hybridism of this great artistic field contributes to question the fixed categories of thought and to broaden the dialogue about contemporary artistic practices and their circulation strategies.

Noções incontornáveis nas Artes Visuais

The Dossier “Essential Notions in Visual Arts” presents, in a set of articles, the questioning of the fundamental notions that delimit the field of Visual Arts. It is understood that they have been constantly reexamined and the main reason for this is the experimental character of the artistic making and the adoption of original procedures and ways of thinking, challenging the very definition of a work of art. A whole repertoire of notions, and the relations between them, constitute the constellation that establishes art as a field of knowledge.

Eu estava aqui o tempo todo e você não me viu: Desafios e conquistas da arte indígena contemporânea brasileira.

Indigenous artists of various ethnicities who resist and survive today are present in large galleries, museums and places that were previously colonized and Eurocentric, showing their powerful and revealing arts. The gateway to this precise and assertive moment opens to a new time of discovering who we really are; this is urgent and non-transferable. Organized by guest editors, Kássia Borges and Naine Terena, the dossier “I was here all the time and you didn’t see me: challenges and achievements of Brazilian contemporary indigenous art” brought together articles on contemporary art and the diversity of artistic and cultural expressions that specifically focus and discuss the art of the native peoples of Brazil.

Dossier: Their Space

Este dossiê pretende reunir artigos, ensaios, resenhas e entrevistas, dentre outros tipos de produção textual, que tratem da atuação de mulheres artistas e de suas produções tridimensionais, entendidas aqui como herdeiras do campo escultórico, mas que ao longo do século XX se hibridizaram com outras linguagens e expandiram suas pesquisas plásticas da forma na direção da problemática do espaço e/ou do corpo, em diálogo com outras áreas do conhecimento. O dossiê tem organização de Tatiana Sampaio Ferraz e Marina Mazze Cerchiaro

Como vai você, 2013? Lutas políticas e práticas artísticas no Brasil Contemporâneo

As we reach the ten-year mark since these events, we invite contributions for a special issue titled "How are you, 2013? Political Struggles and Artistic Practices in Contemporary Brazil." Unlike previous exhibitions focusing solely on artists, we seek to examine the collective experiences shared on social media and in the streets. We aim to present a diverse array of perspectives that capture the complexities of 2013. We welcome articles and essays exploring the intersection of art and activism during this period. Submissions may offer historical, ethnographic, conceptual, or imagistic insights, and should reflect on both the events of 2013 and their ongoing impact. We are particularly interested in themes such as counter-monumentalities, rebaptisms (renaming urban spaces), community aesthetics, and the historical and theoretical trajectory of aesthetic-political actions.
