| Popis: | The present article studies the relationship between different categories of margin in the performance Zone of pain II, “Loving work with a refugee of the Santiago’s asylum” and knowned as “The kiss” (1981), by the Chilean writer and artist Diamela Eltit. The performer talks to a beggar with a psychiatric disease, an outsider out of the market in a capitalist and neoliberal world. Besides, the performer kiss him. Throw this perfornace, the artist puts in the middle of the scene the social and economic margin, which capitalist society rejects. She also recovers the city, a city under a state of siege, and her body, as a performer and as a feminist artist. We consider to this analysis the concept of cadboard of Walter Benjamin, sinde the literary studies; the performance studies, specifically in Latin America, with central characteristics as body and city; genre studies with its importance of the body; the contribution of marxist feminism in particular, which distinguishes the divition beetwen productive and reproductive works and care tasks, division that performance and “loving work” critics, in a general critic of traditional roles and mandates imposed to women. The performance is also a form of criticism (and of resistance) of the Chilean dictatorship (1973-1990). |
