Arte preta de gaveta: um olhar para a produção de artistas negros, para além das galerias

Abstract

The initial designation of this writing focuses on a historical context, establishing reflective frames with regard to considerations of the past, black cultural marks, imprinted on the formation of individuals in the current context outside African soil, but essentially the impressions of these marks in related works the black visual arts produced. Difficulties in cultural instrumentalization are presented, in view of the exhaustive look of works loaded with traces printed by local experiences, and ancestors, rising and materializing in Brazilianness, in mixtures impregnated by transversal influences to inevitable cultural contacts in the connection of production and production. artistic practices. The elucidation throughout the writing approaches theory, practice and experiences, as a comparative possibility, in the projection of past, present and future, about the insertion in the visual arts, of productions made by blacks. Art market and formal institutions are points carefully impregnated with bustle and attempts to insert the black discussion in school environments, the glimpse of education professionals able to accommodate this insertion. We seek, regardless of difficulties, to incorporate future exhibition possibilities with optimism, even if they are beyond galleries.
