The force of Art: Resignifying the space
Main Article Content
Keywords
Art, etnography, performativity, resignification
Abstract
Our objective is to display, from our own experience, how the exceptional character of art, its force, is manifested. The employed method is qualitative, which we call performative etnography, as we recognize ourselves as part of the studied population and we are conscious of us being performed and constructed through the process. The common thread of this article is to expose the performative processes in the appropiation dynamic and continuous resignification of the space, the ideas exposed by Krzysztof Ziarek about the force of art in dialogue with Theodor W. Adorno are followed.
