The transmedia art installation in the decades of 1960/1970 and in the contemporaneity (André Parente and Kátia Maciel)

Abstract

The art in the context of transmedia, affected by resources from various media such as film, video and new audiovisual technologies, goes beyond borders, open passages and moving spaces and temporalities suggesting public participation. From a comparative and temporal proposition, this study aims to draw dialogic possibilities of the concepts and practices of the vanguard transmedia art installation that began in the 1960s and lasted throughout the 1970s – especially those of the Fluxus group, Jack Smith, expanded Cinema, environmental manifestations of some Brazilian artists (like Helio Oiticica) and today, focusing on two Brazilian artists: André Parente and Kátia Maciel.
