Resumo(s)
The Master’s degree essay entitled as “The disaggregated body: the contemporary painting as an organic element and swinging matter” refers to the movable and gestural body of the pictorial surface, allied to an idea of a fragmented human body. We’ll highlight the 20th century painting, because we believe that it fits within the parameters of painting materiality and the emergence of a body (human or constituted by elements directly related to it). In the first chapter called “The deformed body in the 20th century art: the incorporation of the being anxiety”, we´ll talk about the origins that are associated to the appearance of an art that approaches the human body as a “losted” unit. This means the body as desegregation and as an expression of a disturbing reality, that is expelled from the interior like a convulsion. The human body would be linked to the pain that distorts the nature according to their impulses. There would be a confrontation and tension between the human being and the outside world. Besides that, we’ll also speak briefly about artists such as Edvard Munch, Van Gogh, Salvador Dali, Marcel Duchamp, Alberto Giacometti and Loiuse Bourgeois, who approach, in different and distinct ways the issue of body representation. And, in more detail, we will study the works of Picasso, Willem De Kooning and Georg Baselitz. In the second chapter, called “The pictorial surface fragmentation: the painting body as swinging matter”, we’ll discuss in a more detailed fashion, the question of painting materiality, in the light of the idea of formless, wich according to Georges Bataille is deeply associated to the work of many contemporary artists. We’ll analyze as well, in detail, the work of painters like Chaïm Soutine, Lucian Freud, Frank Auerbach, Philip Guston and Leon Kossof, emphasizing the visceral component and the ink’s organic “carnality”. In the third and final chapter I'll talk about my painting project wich is related to the essay topic, since it aproches issues like the human body, the texture and plasticity/volumetry of the paint. I constantly recreate elements that send us to universes with an animal nature, wich live from the constant tension between abstraction and figuration. It´s an open painting to experimentation and motion
