Antropofagia brasileña: devorar a Europa para crear identidad

¿Y si la respuesta a la colonización no fuera copiar a Europa, sino devorarla? En 1928, Oswald de Andrade publica el Manifesto Antropófago y propone una de las ideas más radicales del arte latinoamericano: la cultura no se imita, se digiere. Más que un movimiento artístico breve, la antropofagia fue una estrategia cultural: absorber influencias externas para transformarlas en algo propio. Una forma de romper con la dependencia simbólica sin caer en el aislamiento. ¿Fue una vanguardia pasajera, o una de las primeras teorías culturales verdaderamente latinoamericanas? Porque la pregunta sigue vigente: ¿Estamos consumiendo el mundo, o sabemos digerirlo? #ArteContemporáneo #ArteLatinoamericano #Brasil #Antropofagia #OswaldDeAndrade #TarsilaDoAmaral #HistoriaDelArte #Decolonialidad #TheKitschPress Texto retranscrito da descrição do vídeo no youtube.

“When I talk to my peers about work, a majority of them tell me they work to avoid consequences. Unpaid bills. Loss of healthcare. Homelessness. Endless other variations on that theme.

They aren’t working in pursuit of something. They are working avoidance of something. For many, especially those without the safety nets of robust support systems of family wealth, that’s the nature of our society.

In the minds of many Americans, we traded ‘the pursuit of happiness’ for ‘fend off desperation’ long ago. Settling for such grim motivations feels like an absolute failure of imagination for creatures who are natural crafters of meaning, for creatures who need whimsy and ritual to thrive.”
