RESUMO
This research intended an analysis from the French plastic artist Hubert Duprats work, his Cases. Aiming to study questions that could help to understand contemporary art and its peculiarities, and wishing understanding a little more about the use of gold as plastic material in art through time, this contemporary artist was chosen and this work of his, which are little cases made in gold and precious stones. The artist started this work with cocoons in 1983 and is developing it until today, raising questions that are anachronical in Art History, as the concepts of sacred, copy without original, strangeness, preciosity. However this artist also resignifies the works making in contemporary art, once his artistic process is based in the object, the result, the finishing, more than just the concept or generating idea. Starting from these premises, other series of this artists works followed, which are related to the gold cases through material or concept; and with the help of authors as Georges Didi-Huberman and Aby Warburg it was possible to look to these works from an assembling procedure, and with Gilles Deleuze it was allowed to develop a study based in his concept of repetition with difference. This theoretical luggage legitimated other relations of the Duprats selected works to other artists and periods in art history, bringing to the research the matter that symptoms return in art, come back with differences, resignifying and withdrawing some works of oversight, but go as a reiteration that presents itself, and it is through art that it can be traced
