Abstract

The act of creation as an act of resistence, is set in this Simposium, reflecting anout two fundamental premises. The first reveals the experience of the moment the teacher was no longer the repositor of knowledge, questioning about the constant discordant "new" that each of his students brings in their genesis of creator and consequently the complicity with this transforming disobedience; The second one reveals the awareness that the act of creation is inscribed in a constant rupture that allows the questioning, also constant of the teacher, of the student, of the system, of the constructed knowledge. Based on concepts of a philosophical nature, the idea of Art and Activism is reiterated here by contemporary artistic practice and the testimony of Unesco reports (2015-2016) on the violation of the rights to free expression of Art and Culture.
