With this II International Conference, which builds on the Conference held in 2016, we will focus in particular on the articulation between clinical and artistic practices, and the way in which this articulation is able to question the prevailing social norms. Far from specialized pedagogy or art therapy, Deligny’s proposals are true collective experiments with a remarkable sociopolitical scope. Extremely relevant today, they call on us to think about micropolitical strategies in the face of the urgencies of our time.

The event, therefore, proposes to relaunch Deligny’s gesture, which, for over 50 years, has attempted to encounter difference through transversal practices, implying other ways of weaving networks and letting ourselves be entangled, new wefts in which other ways of living, other modes of existence and coexistence become possible. The experimental dimension, central to his thought and practice, seeks above all the invention of contexts and environments that provide spatial and collective reconfigurations, through tools such as maps, cameras, objects, and installations.

Although Deligny’s attempts are situated geographically, historically, and politically, the meeting seeks to reactivate his proposals for the construction of an environment capable of renewing common practices. His poetic, political, and constructive gesture thus renews, in the present day, the power to open space and fabricate breaches in the midst of and against the annihilation we are living.

The Meeting is the result of Franco-Brazilian cooperation and of the project La tentative Deligny [ École Universitaire de Recherche ArTeC, Universities Paris 8 and Paris Nanterre ], as well as nascent collaboration with researchers from other Latin American countries and Germany. For its realization, we will occupy a network of places in Rio de Janeiro: PUC-Rio, Escola de Cinema Darcy Ribeiro, Casa Jangada, Casa 69 and Museu de Arte do Rio – MAR.
