Abstract(s)
As obras de Luiza Neto Jorge e Paula Rego são um bom exemplo de diálogo
polifónico entre as várias artes. Sendo contemporâneas, as suas obras, de matriz
surrealista, revelam um desejo claro de desconstruir e subverter o conceito tradicional
de arte recriando-a.
Ambas recorrem obsessivamente a uma identificação com diferentes animais
traduzida em metamorfoses completas ou parciais da figura feminina. A atitude da
mulher jorgiana, representada, sobretudo, pela mulher-cabra, é sempre a de uma
mulher erótica, ativa, agressiva e desafiadora enquanto a animalidade em Paula Rego,
protagonizada principalmente pela Mulher-Cão, apresenta a mulher submissa,
humilhada, mas revoltada com a sua situação.
Se a Neto Jorge se pode aplicar o «devir-animal» deleuziano total, em Paula
Rego ele surge «internalizado» projetando-se em figuras grotescas e monstruosas,
onde a metamorfose se revela externa. No entanto, nem por isso as mulheres pintadas
por Rego são menos insurrectas do que as da escritora.
The works of Luiza Neto Jorge and Paula Rego are a good example of a polyphonic dialogue between the various arts. Being contemporary, their surrealist works reveal a clear desire to deconstruct and subvert the traditional concept of art by recreating it. Both resort obsessively to an identification with different animals translated into complete or partial metamorphoses of the female figure. The attitude of Neto Jorge’s woman, represented mainly by the goat woman, is always that of an erotic, active, aggressive and challenging woman while the animality in Paula Rego, mainly carried out by the Dog-Woman, presents her submissive, humiliated, but revolted by her situation. If to Neto Jorge we can apply the total Deleuzian "becoming-animal", in Paula Rego it appears «internalized», projecting into grotesque and monstrous figures, where the metamorphosis reveals itself externally. However, the women painted by Rego are not less insurrect than those of the writer.
