Plataforma CORPOCIDADE “began as an artistic, academic meeting and unfolded into other actions of different natures (academic, research, editorials, methodological experiments) that became part of what [they] call the Plataforma CORPOCIDADE: a set of activities articulated in around the same critical project of resistance to the current process of spectacularization of cities, pacification of public spaces and its consequent appeasement of the urban and bodily experience of its inhabitants. With this purpose, Plataforma CORPOCIDADE has been, for five years, testing different ways of articulating art and academic research in different disciplinary fields to build a critical and propositional debate on the different relationships between urbanism, art, body, and city in search of alternative paths for redesigning their participatory conditions in the public life in which they are co-implicated.”
