Primeiramente, não podemos esquecer que, ao contrário da operação noturna e silenciosa peculiar aos pichadores, o acontecimento na Bienal está longe de poder ser chamado de estético e pacífico: 40 jovens invadem o Pavilhão da Bienal como um arrastão, derrubando tudo, agredindo pessoas fisicamente, com o objetivo de, segundo a convocatória pela internet de seu líder Rafael Augustaitz, pichar o 2º e o 3º andares, destruindo todas as obras. Foi mais um gesto peculiar desse grupo destrutivo, que desde as invasões da Escola de Belas Artes e da Galeria Choque Cultural usa da pichação como meio para apagar e danificar o trabalho dos outros artistas. Será que o meio artístico não se dá conta do autoritarismo de tal gesto, do que ele implica de censura ao outro? Não é preocupante perceber que a tática de um ex-estudante de artes é fazer do apagamento de outros artistas um fenômeno midiático? Sim, pois a imprensa e os canais de internet foram avisados três horas antes do ataque à Bienal e estavam postados esperando pelo espetáculo! Não foi, portanto, um preenchimento do vazio ou uma resposta “em vivo contato”, o que da parte da curadoria nunca supôs o uso de violência. Não se tratou tampouco de colar stickers, fazer barcos de papel ou tocar música no 2º andar do Pavilhão – como de fato ocorreu no decorrer da mostra –, mas de vandalismo agressivo e autoritário. Por outro lado, como curadores e cidadãos republicanos, estamos de acordo em que a punição para Caroline é pesada e inadequada. Lamentamos por ela e pela sua instrumentalização por certa mídia. Perguntamo-nos: onde estaria o mentor intelectual de tal ataque, ex-aluno da Escola de Belas Artes, que expõe nome e sobrenome como autor das três invasões e que saiu do Pavilhão da Bienal prometendo continuar pichando outros museus de São Paulo? No infeliz caso de Caroline, devemos, entretanto, reconhecer que sua condição atual é resultado de mais uma filigrana jurídica, advinda de uma interpretação estrita da lei. Mas não é essa mesma uma característica da Justiça no Brasil, a desigualdade em sua aplicação? Não são filigranas jurídicas que mantêm criminosos condenados vivendo em liberdade sem haver cumprido suas penas? Então, ao discutirmos instituição no Brasil, parece que o problema não é apenas das culturais ou da Bienal de São Paulo, mas também de instituições como a Justiça e o Congresso Nacional. Ou ainda das políticas públicas para a habitação, o que faz com que Caroline fique detida por falta de comprovante de endereço. Contraditoriamente, o Estado não lhe assegurou uma moradia até agora, conforme se depreende da lei que a mantém na cadeia! Se Caroline possuísse um comprovante de residência, ainda haveria a questão de quem a acusa do crime que ela responderia em liberdade. O Parque do Ibirapuera é uma área de preservação ambiental e o Pavilhão da Bienal é um prédio tombado e um monumento histórico estadual. Foi contra eles que o grupo investiu e do qual ela se tornou o bode expiatório perante a lei. Desde 2003, é muito difícil para qualquer curadoria lidar com as novas leis de tombamento do edifício, pois elas têm impedido a realização de diversos projetos de artistas e obrigado todas as partes a um processo de amplas e longas negociações. Há uma lei, e transgredi-la implica risco. Talvez também fosse oportuna uma discussão sobre essa legislação, que acabará por fazer do Pavilhão um espaço inadequado ao caráter experimental e de laboratório que supõe uma mostra que quer dar conta das práticas artísticas contemporâneas, pois ela é muito pouco flexível para novos usos do prédio. Se o interesse da 28ª Bienal fosse ser um espetáculo midiático e criar um discurso populista apaziguador e demagógico – o que, acreditamos, seria pouco efetivo e em nada transformador da situação em que vivemos –, certamente poderíamos ter nos utilizado do ocorrido no dia 26 de outubro para deslocar todo o debate proposto pelo projeto original da 28ª Bienal, agora realizado, para discutir a relação entre grafite, pichação e arte; arte contemporânea, educação e inclusão; cultura urbana e a questão centro-periferia em São Paulo, entre outros tópicos. Poderíamos ter convidado os invasores a virem participar do debate, a pichar as paredes da Bienal, entre outras ações populistas e instrumentalizadoras. Nossa opção foi e continua sendo a de não fazer uso do ocorrido, e muito menos da injusta prisão de Caroline, para promoção pessoal ou como plataforma política, oportunista e demagógica. Parece-nos ainda interessante observar que, enquanto o meio artístico, instigado por uma falsa polêmica, procura culpar o “vazio”, a Fundação Bienal ou a curadoria da 28ª Bienal de São Paulo pela prisão de Caroline, os próprios integrantes de seu grupo foram direto ao assunto. Picharam, no último dia 5 de dezembro, a casa de um ex-prefeito, acusado de inúmeros delitos e que responde aos processos em liberdade, a seguinte frase: “Cadeia é só para pobre... Liberdade Carol.

  • Making a New World David and the Revolution
    Making a New World David and the Revolution 'Never was any such event so inevitable yet so completely unforeseen', was how the great historian Alexis de Tocqueville characterized the coming of the French Revolution. From a distance of more than two hundred years, we can see that the Revolution was the result of a series of social, economic and political pressures which, though manageable in themselves, had the cumulative effect of toppling the monarchy and chang- ing the course of French and European history. By the mid-1780s the whole framework of the ancien regime seemed close to breakdown. As a legacy of its expensive involvement in the American War of Independence (1778-83), 70 Let's Hope that France was facing bankruptcy and the government was forced this Game Ends Soon, to borrow more and more money to cover its deficits. The 1789 . Coloured public was also aware of how the lavish and extravagant engraving ; 36-5 - 24cm, expenditure of the court added to the nation's debts, and they 141e" 9 1 zin were outraged at the waste. Tensions also existed between the aristocracy and the emerging middle classes, with the latter group trying hard to gain social acceptance and a rise in their influence and status . Of course these issues of politics and class were of little importance to the poor, the vast majority of whom lived in degradation and misery trying to scratch a living from the land. They laid the blame for their misfortunes squarely at the feet of the Church and the aristocracy which claimed crip- pling tithes and feudal dues (70).

  • THEODORE JONES, Alias TED JOANS
    THEODORE JONES, alias TED JOANS JAZZ POET, MUSICIAN, PAINTER and CARTOONIST 4th July 1928 – 25 th April 2003 The phrase Jazz is my religion and surrealism is my point of view written by Ted Joans resumes him well, but we shall see that these are not his only artistic dimensions. Passing away two months before his 75 th birthday Ted Joans had lived several lives: • He was born in 1928 on American Independence Day, on a boat where his father was an entertainer, and had lived in several towns, notably New York during 10 years, between 1951 and 1960. • He exiled himself to Europe , particularly to Paris where he resided for quite some time. • In parallel he travelled in Africa , his point of attachement being Mali where he kept a house at Timbuktu , more or less up to his death. • He also travelled punctually in Central America , and Mexico was not unknown to him. • He died in Canada . Teenager his first emotions as a young reader were surrealist , then upon his arrival in France he wrote to André Breton , who opened wide the doors to his movement. Previously Ted Joans had also invested in the Beat movement: amongst others he knew Jack Kerouac in New York and he frequented the famous Beat Hotel , situated at 9, rue Gît-le Cœur in Paris with William Burroughs and Allen Ginsberg . In music Ted Joans was rarely mistaken, he admired and knew (some very closely) all the greatest jazzmen, from Louis Armstrong to Albert Ayler , Duke Ellington to John Coltrane , Charlie Parker to Archie Shepp , in passing Charlie Mingus .

  • A Historical Materialist Analysis of the Theological Turn of Alain Badiou
    Archives of Defeat? A historical materialist analysis of the theological turn of Alain Badiou. Thomas Matthew Rudman A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the Department of English, Manchester Metropolitan University for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy August 2015 1 ABSTRACT This thesis offers a historical materialist analysis of the use of messianic discourses in contemporary theoretical and literary texts. It focuses on the way the recent ‘theological turn’ in Marxist theory relates to two major historical developments: the ascendency of neoliberal capitalism and the perceived absence of any socialist alternative. In theoretical terms, it produces a symptomatic analysis of Alain Badiou and his attempt to re-invigorate communist militancy via the figure of Saint Paul. Rather than follow Badiou’s avowedly atheistic turn to Paul, I undertake a materialist analysis of the texts of early Christianity in order to show that their style of ideological and political subversion is not incompatible with the egalitarian aims of Marxism. I extend this analysis of the radical potentiality of Christian discourses by examining the significance of messianic discourses in contemporary fiction in novels by Eoin McNamee and Roberto Bolaño. Both novelists deploy the conventions of crime fiction to narrate stories of revolutionary disillusionment and the impact of neoliberal economics in the north of Ireland and the Mexico-US border. My analysis focuses on issues of literary form and how the use of messianic imagery produces formal ruptures in the texts which trouble or disturb their manifest ideologies, notably the sense of revolutionary disillusionment and the notion that there is no longer any possibility of radical social change.
