A crescente disseminação dos estudos feministas na pesquisa em Artes Cênicas e suas contribuições para a criação de ações disruptivas institucionais

Abstract

In this paper, I propose to take a look on the growing diffusion of feminist and gender studies in undergraduate and graduate programs within theatre departments in Brazilian institutions of higher education. The paper addresses the stimulus to include the subject matter through curricular courses, meetings and the creation of theoretical and practical research groups as well as closely linked pedagogic activities that are associated with feminist, identity and decolonial studies within the artist's formative process. This conditioning context serves as a stimules to get in touch with other non-hegemonic epistemologies e establishes a critical reaction towards what are still predominant forms of institutional knowledge, such as androcentric approaches.
