Images, territories and performances: iconospheres from Cachoeira to Salvador through the bands Escola Pública and BaianaSystem
Territories; Cultural matrices; musical scenes; images.
The purpose of my work is to analyze the images and visual traces left on the paths by the bands BaianaSystem and Escola Pública to stabilize their respective iconographies. This proposal will articulate the conceptual proposals about images, fables and performances in the works of Aby Warbug and André Brasil. Here we are interested in the performative character of images that, from their representational and performative dimension, highlight a form of life. Thus, it is from the juxtaposition between logical civilization and magical causality that we will think about the relationship between musical experience and alternative scenes in the historic city of Recôncavo in Bahia, Cachoeira and in the capital of Bahia, Salvador between the years 2009 and 2011, a moment in which The bands are performing at academic conferences, university birthdays, as well as musical festivals in institutionalized spaces such as museums and concert halls. Investigating their aesthetic and territorial narratives, taking into account their particularities, negotiations and possible tensions existing with the urban imaginary in their cities with the fragments of the imaginary space that communicates with the universe of deities, cultural matrices and possible multiple territorialities of connections.
