RECH, Morgana  e  BIRMAN, Joel. Between Silences and Forms: Censorship and Post-Censorship in Contemporary Brazilian Art. Estud. pesqui. psicol. [online]. 2023, vol.23, n.1, pp.349-369.  Epub 03-Maio-2024. ISSN 1808-4281.  https://doi.org/10.12957/epp.2023.75317.

The article deals with censorship in contemporary Brazilian art which, since 2016, with the closing of the Queermuseu exhibition, marked the return of a type of censorship act (post-censorship) that differs from the censorship practiced since redemocratization. To this end, we present a return to the forms of institutionalized censorship in the Military Dictatorship (classical censorship) and its dissolution in culture. Supported by excerpts from some interviews that we carried out in our empirical field, the theoretical articulation is made between the fields of aesthetics, politics and psychoanalysis, with main support in the theories of Michel Foucault, Jacques Rancière and Sigmund Freud. We argue that censorship unequivocally exposes the fact that creation responds to transformations in the political field which, in turn, generate new artistic forms. It is concluded that the main mark of post-censorship is the imprecision of the figure of the censor and that, both in one context and in another, censorship prevents the exercise of the social function of art, an issue that must be observed in psychoanalysis beyond individual subjectivity of the artist.
