Description
Summary:In a context of global transformations, pointed out by a global hostility era and neoliberal policies, that in Argentina has its outbreak on December 2001, this article asks itself about a serie of practices and expressive images of social unrest promoted by graphics and art collectives in social interaction, especially in Buenos Aires City between 1997 and 2007. In those practices took part graphic designers, artists, communicators; suitable people, students and professors, who alternates –also at the boundaries with institutions– the way of conceiving the relationship between everyday life, politics and professional work. They were practices self conveners, heterogeneous between each other that sounded out in their images a common, public sensitivity. From a politic aesthetic perspective this paper tries to research into these processes of aesthetic disagreement training: its space, its temporality, its devices, in the discussion for tradition, the history, the survival of memories that reborn and arise new meanings, as a result of certain cultural configurations of contemporary societies.
