By examining different anatomy lessons in artistic practice such as Rembrandt's Anatomy Lesson from Dr. Tulp and in particular the Anatomy Lesson according to Rembrandt by Tadeusz Kantor, such as the life and work of the Polish director, I ponder on the different rationalities which infer in the construction of the body. I emphasize on the importance that the concept of emballage, a process coined by Tadeusz Kantor assumes in my own artistic work, and the extent to which it allows a questioning of the body, and the creation of affective connections in a stressed process between concealment and visibility. Starting from the philosophical thought of José Bragança de Miranda and the proposition of amateur by Bernard Stiegler, I problematize affect as an element that simultaneously reveals and deconstructs the body, trying to analyze the webs of political, economic and social constructions that shape it. Throughout my research, I applied how in Outra Lição de Anatomia ,specifically, the affective connections of the body are invented, considering how the various constituents of this performance, from biography, experience, political and social factors, enable the creation of a body, here understood as an invention over the flesh. I also confront my audiovisual creation that I submit with this work with the documentary practices of performative events, from the theories of Philip Auslander and Hito Steyerl on documentation. Lastly, I show how my audiovisual creation constitutes itself as a performance, autonomous, engaged in the reflection about affectporRembrandt, 1606-1669Kantor, Tradeusz, 1915-1990AfectosCorpoDevir (Filosofia)LigaçãoAnatomiaEmbalagemmaster thesis201887312
