Arte Pará: ethnography and interpretation at a visual arts exhibition in the Amazon

Abstract The presente paper brings ethnographic reports on experiences with artists, curators, organizers and technicians in the assembly of the Arte Pará exhibit, between the years of 2012 to 2015, held in the city of Belém. An integral part of a doctoral research, this clipping is based on synchronic and dialogical methodological premises from authors, such as Vincent Crapanzano and James Clifford, problematized by contributions of thoughts by Walter Mignolo, Eva Marxen, Beatriz Sarlo, Homi Bhabha and Johannes Fabian, among others. Thus, in order to expose a more critical view of our asymmetric present, this research aims at conferring other interpretative dimensions to the general dynamics of human experience.

摘要 本文旨在呈现2012至2015年间于贝伦市举办的帕拉艺术展（Arte Pará）筹备过程中，与艺术家、策展人、组织者及技术人员共事的民族志研究报告。本节选作为博士研究的有机组成部分，其方法论前提基于文森特·克拉帕扎诺（Vincent Crapanzano）、詹姆斯·克利福德（James Clifford）等学者的共时性与对话性研究框架，并融入沃尔特·米纳洛（Walter Mignolo）、伊娃·马尔克森（Eva Marxen）、贝阿特丽斯·萨洛（Beatriz Sarlo）、霍米·巴巴（Homi Bhabha）、约翰内斯·法比安（Johannes Fabian）等学者的思想理论以展开问题化探讨。故此，为揭示我们所处的不对称当下的批判性面向，本研究旨在为人类经验的整体动态赋予多元阐释维度。
