Curadoria musical: contextos, problemas e regulações

Abstract

During the last decades, the term curatorship expanded virtually to all areas of our everyday life, being used in diverse fields, from culinary to fashion. This research suggests that, once launched out exclusively from the artistic field, the curator became a complex communicational phenomenon and ceased to be an individual actor-subject. The objective of this masters dissertation is to purpose a preliminary discussion to deal with these resignifications of the term and the political, economical and institutional implications of these changes. The focus is to discuss specifically the musical curatorship, which in principle already presents a close relationship with the market, since the fact that music constitutes itself as a music industry. Under the light of bibliographies from the communications, cultural production and political philosophy areas, the research organizes a bibliographical review and analyses a case study: the Encontros Instrumentais (Instrumental Meetings) from Sesc. Is expected to collaborate with debates that not only discuss the term ―curatorship‖, but also its connections with neoliberalism, the institutional environments and the new versions of curators-subjects, which in varied situations, have become increasingly networked and embroiled
