Resumo: This paper examines the extreme and visceral way as the Canadian filmmaker David Cronenberg presents and investigates, in his films, the human body and the sexuality, and what social, cultural and artistic issues involved in this representation as evidence of the potential transformation of the body resulting from biotech advents and interaction with other bodies through violence or sex. The concepts of the grotesque, by Mikhail Bakhtin, and of the abjection, by Julia Kristeva, permeate and underpin this research, aiding the understanding of the configuration process of cronenbergian becoming-body. In this sense, it uses the idea of becoming, proposed by Gilles Deleuze, as contribution to the understanding of the constant transformation of these bodies into all aspects of becoming-body: becoming-animal, becomingmonster and becoming-machine.

Los conceptos de grotesco, formulado por Mikhail Bakhtin, y de abyección, articulado por Julia Kristeva, permean y fundamentan la investigación, ayudando en la comprensión del proceso de configuración del devenir-cuerpo cronenbergiano. En este sentido, se utiliza la idea de devenir, propuesta por Gilles Deleuze, como aporte para la comprensión de la constante transformación de estos cuerpos en todas sus vertientes de devenir-cuerpo: devenir-animal, devenir-monstruo y devenir-máquina. Este artigo analisa a maneira extrema e visceral como o cineasta canadense David Cronenberg apresenta e investiga o corpo humano e a sexualidade em seus filmes, e quais as questões sociais, culturais e artísticas implicadas nessa representação enquanto evidencia das potencialidades transformação do corpo decorrentes dos adventos biotecnológicos e da interação com outros corpos através da violência ou do sexo. Os conceitos de grotesco, formulado por Mikhail Bakhtin, e de abjeção, articulado por Julia Kristeva, permeiam e fundamentam a investigação, auxiliando na compreensão do processo de configuração do devir-corpo cronenberguiano. Nesse sentido, utiliza-se a ideia de devir, proposta por Gilles Deleuze, como aporte para a compreensão da constante transformação desses corpos em todas as suas vertentes de devir-corpo: devir-animal, devir-monstro e devir-máquina.Editora da PUCRS - ediPUCRS2016-03-21info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/revistafamecos/article/view/2144710.15448/1980-3729.2016.2.21447Revista FAMECOS; Vol. 23 No. 2 (2016); ID21447Revista FAMECOS; Vol. 23 Núm. 2 (2016); ID21447Revista FAMECOS; v. 23 n. 2 (2016); ID214471980-37291415-054910.15448/1980-3729.2016.2reponame:Revista FAMECOS: Mídia cultura e tecnologiainstname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio Grande do Sul (PUCRS)instacron:PUC_RSporhttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/revistafamecos/article/view/21447/14169Copyright (c) 2016 Revista FAMECOSinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessFachel de Medeiros, Rosângela2017-06-01T18:54:54Zoai:ojs.revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br:article/21447Revistahttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/revistafamecosPRIhttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/revistafamecos/oai||revistafamecos@gmail.com1980-37291980-3729opendoar:2017-06-01T18:54:54Revista FAMECOS: Mídia cultura e tecnologia - Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio Grande do Sul (PUCRS)false
