| Sumario: | This article aims to explore how the aesthetics of everyday life served to the resistance strategies of gay men facing the regulatory practices of power over their bodies and their image. We take the principle that these subjects have created products imagistic in order to design a lifestyle based on aesthetic pleasure. Our analytical operation focuses on some expressive materials that served as the disclosure of their language. We believe that this language was strengthened by the use of the body and gestures, the communication made by machine and the movement of words and images, suitable to the arts and literature. We demand a significant dimension of the communication process to describe the modes of interaction between these subjects. |
