Abstract

AMARANTE, Paulo; FREITAS, Fernando; PANDE, Mariana Rangel  and  NABUCO, Edvaldo. The artistic-cultural field in Brazilian psychiatric reform: the identity paradigm of recognition. Salud colectiva [online]. 2013, vol.9, n.3, pp.287-299. ISSN 1851-8265.

This article presents the results of a qualitative study examining a series of artistic and cultural activities that emerged over the last years in Brazil in the context of psychiatric reform. Using both semi-structured interviews with users and mental health professionals as the authors of these activities, as well as participant observation in cultural and artistic events within the period 2007-2010, this study analyzes the role of recognition within the artistic-cultural dimension in the production of subjectivities different from those produced by the traditional psychiatric field.

Keywords : Deinstitutionalization; Art; Recognition (Psychology); Brazil.
