PARA COMPREENDER O NEOCONCRETO

APONTAMENTOS SOBRE A RELAÇÃO ESPECTADOR-OBRA A PARTIR DA PRODUÇÃO DE LYGIA CLARK

Abstract

The objective of this article is to theoretically investigate the Neo-Concrete artistic period and the context of its beginning in Brazil. In this sense, we intend to conduct a bibliographic research with a theoretical and analytical emphasis on the historical, theoretical and critical triad of this specific artistic movement, based on the research about art (REY, 1996). In order to understand how the spectator/artwork relationship unfolds in the Neo-Concrete, we also analyze the trajectory of Lygia Clark and her radical features in relation to the art production of that period. We study authors such as Ronaldo Brito (1999), Ferreira Gullar (1959), and Maria Alice Milliet (1992) to contemplate Clark's journey and the contextualization of the artistic period that this research encompasses. This article originated from an Undergraduate Scientific Initiation Research (IC), which provided an understanding that the Neo-Concrete was the precursor to incorporate the subject into the artistic production, thereby promoting an experiential art in contrast to the passive attitude of the observer.
