El mundo según el gap. La historieta como filosofía del arte

Abstract

Through the exploration of comics as a constituent factor of pop culture we can suggest that within the invisibilized and daily fabric of mass culture there exists a constant battle between the imposition of the desire to consume as well as the meaning of what is being consumed on one side; and the inevitable reassignment and reappropriation of those very products consumed by the masses, on the other. The subversive potential in such reappropriation would be exercised through often involuntary and unconscious actions, that when fueled by enough historic density could be considered as a material indicator for the late 20th century posthistorical turn and the possible ways of living that might originate from within such a process.
