ABSTRACT

This article explores the role of art interventions in mobilisations unleashed in Chile in October 2019, situating them in the urban fabric of one of the most segregated cities in the world: Santiago. Understood as an uprising against the precarity of life imposed by the neoliberal state, this social explosion devised creative and expressive strategies to disrupt the daily flow of ingrained normative structures, and questioned its longstanding legitimacy in shaping the city’s neoliberal layout. In this text, we first focus on the ways this spring of protest overflowed the genealogies that cross art, politics and public space on the local scene, opening up vanishing points between a certain tradition of politicisation of public art with solid roots in Latin American territory, on the one hand, and a more recent history of aestheticisation of urban protest that finds a crucial milestone in the playful resources of the student protests of 2011, on the other. From an interdisciplinary approach, we examine diverse art interventions that vindicated the urban space as a territory of public expression and political imagination to conceive a new constituent process. In this work, we sustain that these exercises reclaiming citizenship operated as ‘strategies of estrangement’, shedding light on how the neoliberal infrastructure of the city has naturalised inequality, social insecurity and segregation. By way of conclusion, we cross-examine the possibilities that aesthetic experience can offer for social and political resistance against neoliberal normalcy, and a common ground to explore alternative visions of futurity.

破坏常态。反对新自由主义城市的艺术干预和政治动员(智利圣地亚哥,2019 年)

摘要

本文探讨了艺术干预在 2019 年 10 月智利发动的动员中的作用,将它们置于世界上隔离最严重的城市之一:圣地亚哥的城市结构中。这场社会爆炸被理解为反对新自由主义国家强加的生活不稳定的起义,它设计了创造性和表达性的策略来破坏根深蒂固的规范结构的日常流动,并质疑其在塑造城市新自由主义布局方面的长期合法性。在本文中,我们首先关注这个春天的抗议如何在当地场景中溢出跨越艺术、政治和公共空间的谱系,在拉美领土上扎根的公共艺术政治化传统之间开辟了消失点。 , 一方面,另一方面,城市抗议美学化的最新历史在 2011 年学生抗议活动的有趣资源中找到了一个重要的里程碑。从跨学科的方法中,我们研究了各种艺术干预,这些干预证明城市空间是公共表达和政治想象的领域,以构想一个新的组成过程。在这项工作中,我们认为这些恢复公民身份的活动是作为“疏远策略”运作的,揭示了城市的新自由主义基础设施如何使不平等、社会不安全和隔离自然化。作为结论,我们交叉检验了审美经验可以为反对新自由主义常态的社会和政治抵抗提供的可能性,以及探索未来替代愿景的共同基础。
