Neste trabalho pretende-se reflectir sobre a relação entre as artes performativas e a construção e a transmissão da chamada memória cultural. Será estudado, por um lado, o conceito de memória, em especial de memória colectiva e o seu papel na formação da(s) identidade(s) cultural(is). Por outro lado, demonstrar-se-á o poder representativo do corpo e do movimento corporal, nomeadamente a sua capacidade de criação de significado. Para exemplificar a teoria apresentada, analisar-se-á um objecto artístico determinado, no campo das artes performativas – o espectáculo VALE, de Madalena Victorino e produção Artemrede, um projecto que partiu das memórias, tradições e costumes do território do Vale do Tejo para as representar em palco através da linguagem da dança e da música contemporâneas.
In this work we intend to reflect on the relationship between the performing arts and the construction and transmission of the so-called cultural memory. On the one hand we will discuss some of the main concepts of memory, especially the concept of collective memory and its role in shaping cultural identities. On the other hand we intend to prove the representative power of the body and its movement, including its ability to create meaning. To illustrate the theory presented we will analyze a particular artistic object in the field of the performing arts – the performance VALE, by Madalena Victorino and an Artemrede‟s production, a project which recollects the memories, traditions and customs of the Tagus Valley to represent them on stage through the language of contemporary dance and music.
