Arte e meio ambiente: tendências colaborativas e questões para debate (Art and environment: collaborative trends and issues for discussion)

Resumo

Há diferentes perspectivas nos estudos que buscam entender as relações entre a arte e a temática ambiental. Assim, é possível identificar abordagens empresariais focadas na gestão e na administração e outros estudos mais próximos da justiça social e do desenvolvimento das cidades. Algumas dessas abordagens almejam elucidar o caráter colaborativo entre arte, temática ambiental e consciência social, enquanto outras, por vezes, deixam claro as suas vinculações ideológicas com o ecologismo de mercado. Entre as identificações realizadas por meio da literatura consultada, destacam-se também a tendência artística, política e científica de sugerir uma maior aproximação entre o trabalho criativo e os problemas ecológicos, fato que sugere maiores debates sobre a originalidade da arte que se expressa por meio dos temas ambientais. Portanto, a partir da revisão de alguns dos documentos como a Carta da Terra e o Manifesto de Tutzing, além da consulta a textos científicos disponíveis em portais de periódicos, buscou-se, no presente trabalho, levantar questões para o debate acerca das tendências colaborativas entre arte e meio ambiente.

Studies that seek to understand the relationship between art and the environmental theme can carry out business approaches based on management and administration, as well as on social justice and development of cities. While some approaches to the relationship between art and environment elucidate social consciousness, others are more closely linked to market ecology. Aiming to analyze some collaborative tendencies between art and environment, this article explored scientific texts available in periodical portals and documents such as the Earth Charter and the Tutzing Manifest. In addition, there were examples of artistic performances related to the environmental theme, highlighting two practices, one involving the installation of works donated by the plastic artist Frans Krajcberg to the city of São Paulo and the other was an artistic manifest realized through art in concomitance with the movement #OcupeEstelita, in the city of Recife. Among the identifications made through the consulted literature and the examples presented, both the tendency of the incorporation of the environmental art as a procedure of aesthetization of contemporary capitalism was verified, as well as the artistic mobilization to safeguard the environment and the right to the city. Thus, it was observed the importance of raising more debates about the originality of art expressed through environmental themes.
