<Content=no cache> um estudo de abdução na arte

Abstract

The main objective of this work is, from a methodological proposal centered on abduction, to develop a study of the work <Content= In Cache> (2001), of the artist Giselle Beiguelman. From a list of the characteristics of this work, we sought to identify key issues for its classification as net.art. For the study of net.art, we conducted an initial survey of the concepts of artistic thought and contemporary art. The adoption by the artist of certain themes and the choice of image patterns formed by letters indicated aesthetic issues that could direct the study <Content= In Cache>. Beiguelman's propose to promote the cyberliteracy is seen here in relation to other art forms that were concerned with the critique of traditional semantics, the use of text as an image, the aesthetics of code and the software policies. Thus, through the study of specific aesthetic features of this work, we seek to understand contemporary art and issues that were considered necessary here to read the art in the digital context.
