A ESTÉTICA DEMONÍACA E DO ENTRELUGAR NAS OBRAS DE FARNESE DE ANDRADE E EM A PASSAGEM TENSA DOS CORPOS, DE CARLOS DE BRITO E MELLO.

Abstract

The main objectives of this work are the theoretical construction of the demonic esthetic and the identification of this proposal in modern and contemporary art. The research was based mainly on contemporary approaches of Jean Baudrillard (1991), Zygmunt Bauman (2001) and Goerges Bataille (1987). From the phenomenological perspective of Mikel Dufrenne (2008), the demonic esthetic is the aesthetic experience awakened by the horror and the grotesque. The demonic is historically, the rupture with the traditional sense of beauty and the moral. The demoniac would be a transgression of the dominant social order and the esthetic expression that reveals the transgressive and heretical of human nature. The Apollonian and rational reality is unmasked by the revelation of the Dionysian impulse that results in the return of man to himself, to obscurity, to unknown, to infernal and nefarious. In the contact with hell, the man overcomes himself and becomes what it is. The state of for coming and the between place are part of demonic expression as new spaces of contestation and transformation. The demonic esthetics is present in modern and contemporary art. For this are analyzed: the art works of Farnese de Andrade and the artistic discourse in the romance, The Tense Passage of the Bodies, written by Carlos de Brito Mello.
