Esta investigação debruça-se sobre o crescimento exponencial, nas últimas décadas, de práticas artísticas em contextos de vulnerabilidade social, envolvendo artistas profissionais e não profissionais, em Portugal. Através de uma etnografia da Iniciativa PARTIS, procurei compreender como as organizações culturais têm procurado, por via de iniciativas participativas, promover a sua actualização, relevância e reposicionamento na sociedade contemporânea. Este gesto de dar visibilidade e acesso aos meios de produção cultural, fundamental para o cumprimento de uma cidadania, fica incompleto se essa visibilidade e participação não forem estendidas a modelos de governança, nomeadamente de tomada de decisão, mais efectivos e com maior participação. Através da etnografia de quatro projectos de práticas artísticas e inclusão social, compreendi a experiência profundamente transformadora que os projectos constituem para todos os que neles participam. O reconhecimento da força criativa e expressiva de pessoas não profissionais tem permitido aos artistas o acesso a realidades sociais e a uma “estética do real” que de outro modo não teriam. Para os artistas e para as instituições, estas iniciativas procuram activar a força da produção colectiva e materializar um exercício de imaginação sobre outras relações possíveis e outras conexões futuras, como resposta comprometida com o contexto social fragmentado e vulnerável em que vivemos.
This investigation focuses on the exponential growth, over the last few decades, of artistic practices in contexts of social vulnerability, involving professional and non professional artists, in Portugal. Through an etnography of the PARTIS Iniciative, I sought to understand how cultural organizations, via participatory iniciatives, have tried to promote their redesign, relevance and repositioning in our contemporary society. This gesture of giving visibility and access to means of cultural production, which is essencial to accomplish citizenship, is incomplete if that same visibility and participation aren’t extended to more effective and participatory models of governance, namely of decision making. Through the etnography of four artistic practices and social inclusion projects, I understood the profoundly transformative experience that these projects consist in for everyone participating in them. Recognizing the creative and expressive strength of non professional people has allowed artists to access social realities and an “aesthetic of the real”, which they normally wouldn’t be able to do. It also seeks to activate the strength of collective production and to materialize an exercise of imagination over other possible relationships and other future connections, as a promised answer to the fragmented and vulnerable context we live in.
