THE URBAN ARTISTIC INTERVENTIONS IN THE ART CIRCUIT IN RORAIMA AND THE COMMUNICATIVE POTENTIAL OF AMAZONIAN ARTISTIC KNOWLEDGE

Abstract

Discussing how the urban artistic interventions communicate to the spectator Roraimense presents itself as the focus of discussion of this study. In order to achieve this objective, theoretical investigations were conducted based on the understanding of the contemporary artistic scene, based on the studies of Cauquelin (2005) and Cocchiarale (2004); And the specificities of Roraima, highlighting the artistic representation of local knowledge, with studies by Gonçalves (2017) and Silva (2017). In parallel, we work with the appropriation of the culture circuit concepts of Johnson (1999) and Nessbaumer (2000), in the sense of establishing a proposal of discussion about what we call Circuito da arte. This circuit enables us to understand the processes by which artistic production passes until consumption reaches the spectator. In this way, we can perceive that the communication expressed by the urban artistic interventions is still quite insipient, as far as the artistic appropriation of the roreimenses and Amazonian local knowledge is concerned.
