RESUMO

This work analyses the trajectory of Lygia Pape (1927-2004), experimental artist who worked in several languages and media. By the analysis of her production in relation with the urban context she was inserted, we focus three moments and piece sets: the first, part of the wide "modern cultural project" includes concrete and neoconcrete pieces, like the wood cut "Tecelares" (1955-1959), the script for a movie about Brasília (1959), the "Livro da criação" (1959) e "Balés neoconcretos" (1958-1959); the second, on the crisis of the previous project concept, embraces the participative pieces like "Ovo" (1968), "Divisor" (1968) and "Roda dos prazeres" (1968) and the third, chronologically most recent, in which Lygia, in a more critical way, brings to evidence characteristics of a city relating it to other discourses and cultural practices, analyses pieces like her project "Eat me: a gula ou a luxúria?" (1976) and the movies "Wampirou" (1974) and "Carnival in Rio" (1974).
