Vol. 2 No. 38 (2025): Dossiê: Estéticas do Poder e suas interseções entre Política, Cinema, Arte e Moda
Imagem criada por Jo Souza, Maikol Nascimento, sob o conceito de bricolagem de Lévi-Strauss, a imagem de capa do dossiê contém diversos fragmentos que se unem para delinear um caleidosópio de imagens, cores e formas. O conjunto desses elementos, constituem o todo, o qual revela camadas profundas de significados. Organizadores: Jo Souza Maikol Nascimento Cíntia Tolosa Publicado 2025-12-22

Power is never only a statement: it is an image, a gesture, a texture. It parades, poses, speaks through color and through its absence. It governs by the body that performs, by the clothing it chooses, by the lens that films — and by the cut that excludes.

In this dossier, we propose a critical journey through territories where politics dresses, displays itself, and makes itself visible. Fashion and cinema, beyond cultural and creative expressions, are understood here as dispositifs of visibility and symbolic dispute, where it is decided who may appear, and how they may appear: they politicize the sensible.

This dossier brought together researchers from the Social Sciences, Cinema, Fashion, Communication, Philosophy, and Visual Arts to investigate these forms and social representations where the aesthetic does not illustrate the political — but founds it, strains it, challenges it.
