Popcretos<\/em>, 1964-1966: Sonic Matters in Brazilian Concrete Poetry<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The lecture investigates the dynamic relationship between sound and visual elements in Brazilian concrete poetry, drawing on sonic and literary theory. Emerging in the mid-1950s, concrete poetry marks a pivotal moment in the constructivist tradition of Latin American poetry and art. It focuses on Augusto de Campos\u2019s Popcretos<\/em>\u00a0series, created in 1964 as a response to that year’s military coup in Brazil. By examining how its engagement with notions of noise and silence establishes a framework through which fragmented language and imagery unfold, it argues that even in the most ostensive visual poems, the auditory emerges as a generative element to explore poetic and political themes.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
