Entre en discontinuidad, 1966. Percepción y texto en una intervención urbana de Raúl Escari

Abstract

In October 1966, argentinean writer Raul Escari performed an artistic intervention in Buenos Aires city. In five important corners of the city he simultaneously delivered short texts which talked about the corners where they were being delivering. I consider that this artistic intervention includes among its characteristics and goals some thoughts and strategies significatives to think about the links between perception and text. So that, after tracking some ideas about perception, text and action, I try to find out in which specific ways Entre en discontinuidad configured a textual mode of intervention aiming to transform reader's perception.
