Abstract

The Performance Performance: challenging the controlling images – The article proposes to analyze the performance Leite Derramado (2013) by the artist Ana Musidora from point of view of Black mother representation.  In this regard, we investigate the concept of controlling images by the American sociologist Patricia Hill Collins and the images invoked to define the black woman in Brazil, by the Anthropologist Lélia Gonzalez.  We reflect on how Leite Derramado explores critical layers on the images/historical representations sorted according to patriarchal and slavery values on Black women.
