A pesquisa de doutorado apresentada a seguir pretende construir uma reflexão, em
perspectiva comparada, sobre a metaficção em experimentos artísticos em curso no Brasil e
em Portugal. Consideramos como obras metaficcionais aquelas que destacam e enfatizam a
artificialidade de suas construções, desnudam-se diante do leitor, provocando a ilusão da
suposta espontaneidade da criação artística. Desejamos, por meio do corpus bibliográfico da
pesquisa, auscultar a respiração contemporânea do recurso metaficcional que, consagrado
durante o modernismo, frequenta ainda com assiduidade obras literárias e artísticas
contemporâneas de diferentes nacionalidades. Em meio a abundância de discursos
autorreferentes, selecionamos três vozes que apresentam de maneira singular e original a
questão metaficcional. O corpus selecionado contempla o romance O inventário das coisas
ausentes (2014), da escritora brasileira Carola Saavedra, a exposição pictórica In Situ: Carta
de Intenções (2014), do artista plástico português Rui Macedo e uma seleção de crônicas do
escritor português António Lobo Antunes (Livro de crónicas, 1998, Segundo livro de
crónicas, 2002, Terceiro livro de crónicas, 2006, Quarto livro de crónicas, 2011, e Quinto
livro de crónicas, 2013). A primeira seção, introdutória, aponta os objetivos e hipóteses de
trabalho que frequentam e norteiam a produção da tese de doutorado e endereça brevemente
a discussão teórica em torno da metaficção. Em termos de formato, a tese investigará três
grandes eixos em cada produção artística selecionada: o primeiro aspecto será perceber de
que modo os investimentos metaficcionais produzem a impressão de uma espontaneidade
forjada; o segundo aspecto será uma reflexão sobre o pacto de leitura (de que forma as obras
selecionadas abalam a relação estabelecida entre artista, obra e público); e o terceiro aspecto
será analisar como o corpus escolhido propõe um movimento de retorno a(s) origem(ns).
Tendo como fio condutor da escrita da tese os três eixos acima listados pretendemos
investigar de que maneira as obras artísticas reagem a essas indagações. Exploramos a
hipótese de que o exame comparado dos dispositivos metaficcionais singulares mobilizados
nessas obras fornece elementos valiosos para pensar o estatuto contemporâneo da
metaficção, de um modo geral e nos contextos particulares enfocados, o português e o
brasileiro.
The present doctoral research aims to contemplate, in compared perspective, metafiction on current artistic experiments in Brazil and Portugal. It is considered a metafictional work those which highlight and emphasize the artificiality of its own constructions, unmasking themselves to the reader and inciting the illusion of the supposed spontaneity of the artistic creation. By way of the bibliographic corpus of the present research, it is aimed to auscultate the contemporary breath of the metafictional resource which, hallowed during modernism, is frequently present on recent literary and artistic works from different nationalities. Among a number of self-referential expressions, three voices were selected which present the metafictional issue in an unique and authentic manner. The selected corpus considers the novel O inventário das coisas ausentes (2014) by the Brazilian writer Carola Saavedra, the pictorial exhibition In Situ: Carta de Intenções (2014) by the Portuguese plastic artist Rui Macedo and a collection of chronicles by the Portuguese writer António Lobo Antunes (Livro de crónicas, 1998, Segundo livro de crónicas, 2002, Terceiro livro de crónicas, 2006, Quarto livro de crónicas, 2011 and Quinto livro de crónicas, 2013). The introductory first section indicates the work’s objectives and assumptions that are exposed and which guide the doctoral thesis construction and briefly refers to the theoretical discussion regarding metafiction. In terms of the structure, the thesis examines three major aspects in each artistic production selected: the first one relates to the observation of the ways in which the metafictional approach produces an impression of a forged spontaneity; the second aspect is a contemplation regarding the reader’s pact (in which ways the selected works affect the relation established between artist, work and public); and the third one is an analysis on how the chosen corpus proposes a return to the origin(s). Considering the three aspects outlined above as guidelines to the writing, it is intended to investigate how the artistic works react to this interrogations. An assumption is proposed concerning the fact that the compared examination of the singular metafictional features employed on these works provide valuable elements to think about the contemporary metafictional statute in general and also in the particular Portuguese and Brazilian contexts focused herein.
