Abstract

What do the inhabitants of the largest artistic occupation in Latin America produce? Can the proposition of other subsistence and organization systems lead to the practice of a poetic dimension in the daily life of the metropolis? The artists who inhabit the occupied building at Ouvidor 63, in downtown São Paulo, seem to answer these questions every day and in different ways. This hybrid essay alternates images by photographer Rose Steinmetz - who has been recording the daily lives of the occupants of the building at 63 Ouvidor street since 2016 -, a cut from the 3rd Ouvidor Arts Biennial (themed “The cistern contains: the fountain overflows”) and other works by the artists who live there, in various media such as painting, digital photography, installation, objects, collage, fashion, and performance. The idea is to give tangible form to the relationship between the experience of living and seeing the city from the 13 floors of Ouvidor 63, from a territory that understands life, art and daily life as forms of resistance in the city of São Paulo.
