Resumen

FURLANETE, Fábio; LIMA, Rodrigo  y  PELOGIA, Thiago. Art, truth and ambivalence. Nat. hum. [online]. 2021, vol.23, n.2, pp.164-178. ISSN 1517-2430.

In modern times, philosophical and literary discourses tend to reserve for art the privileged role of instance of truth, therapy and pedagogy for life and about life. At the same time, artistic practice is often legitimized by speeches of truth about nature, the social, and the feeling. This is despite the fact that, unlike other forms of human thought such as science and philosophy, truth is not a central object for art. This intricate relationship with the truth, associated with its alleged power over the subject, indicates a similarity between art and the direction of conduct: a discourse anchored in narratives of truth that seeks to shape subjectivity in the direction of predefined forms of desire. Role that art seems to be able to assume, but not completely, and at the cost of its own power that resides in the chaos of the incompatibility between man and the language discovered by modernity, the chaos of the text without a present body that limits its possibilities of meaning . This work investigates the possibilities opened when thinking about art, simultaneously, as a direction of conduct and text without a body, and the artist as the character that navigates this ambivalence.

Palabras clave : art; truth; modernity; direction of conduct; aesthetic revolution.
