Room 24 of the Social Sciences Building - Av. Prof. Luciano Gualberto, 315

The symposium, organized within the Fapesp Thematic Project Arts and semantics of creation and memory (Process no. 2020/07886-8), seeks to promote meetings between professionals from different subfields and traditions within anthropology, as well as welcome people from other areas of knowledge, whose perspectives contribute to a production of knowledge that is critical and sensitive to the different ways of creating and inhabiting worlds. Conceived from four main axes that make up the thematic project – arts, ecology, kinship and politics –, the 1st International Métis Symposium foresees two Conferences and four Transversal Meetings (ET). Each presentation is expected to explore, based on ethnographic examples and theoretical analyses, aspects related to the guiding idea of ​​the Symposium. In this sense, it is desirable to make an effort to articulate research that initially belongs to different specialties, but that can illuminate each other based on an expanded understanding of the notions of creation and memory.
