Descrição
Resumo:The main objective of this article is to analyze the transgressive ex-votos of two Mexican artists, Alfredo Vilchis, and David Mecalco, to verify the constitution of the scenography and the materialization of humor effects. The central axis of the discussions lies in the concepts of tactics and resistance. The corpus comprises six ex-votos collected from the Mexico Ex-votos project database. The analyzes show that the way of mobilizing different scenographies is a trace of resistance; and that the themes and the way of approaching such themes indicate the emergence of tactics that are linked to the concept of transgression.
