AREA OF CONCENTRATION
THEORIES AND INTERDISCIPLINARY POETICAL PROCESSES
The area includes researches based on methodological, practical and theoretical matrices linked to art and culture, gathered around the idea of interdisciplinarity.
It embraces subareas of knowledge in the field of the arts in which artistic languages and culture are understood as cross-sectional axes that ground it conceptually.
It brings together research professors who conceive research, artistic production and reflection from the mobilization and interlocution of repertoires and subsidies from various fields of research in the fields of Human Sciences, Social Sciences and the intersections with technologies.
Interdisciplinarity is linked to a way of conceiving art in today’s world considering its intense intertwining and approximation with culture in general. In this perspective, culture is seen as an element of hybridization, a transforming principle of contemporary artistic processes.
