Tóm tắt:This text elaborates a close reading of three artworks created in Brazil in the late sixties and seventies, A Espera (1967-2000) by Anna Maria Maiolino, Preparação I (1975) by LetíciaParente and Arte e decoração (1975) by Anna Bella Geiger. More specifically, the article aims to examine how, in these works, the multiple intersections and negotiations occurring between private and public space are explored by materializing heterogeneous images of the home. These artworks develop an iconography of the domestic, but also mobilize, in a more problematic way, the whole polysemic spectrum of the word home. Envisioning the home, and the house, as a site of passage and movement, instead of a protected and self-sufficient place, these works ironically comment on gendered divisions of space and look at how the political constantly infiltrates the private sphere.
