Resumo: The category of grotesque is addressed through the analysis of panel 32 of Atlas Mnemosyne by Aby Warburg. The panel contains mainly Renaissance images, approaching themes that span the ages since Antiquity, such as the dance of the moresca, the amorous courtship and the cult of the goddess Venus, the pictorial genre of Singeries (monkeys) and the battle for the trousers. A panel solely dedicate to the grotesque affirms the vigor of this aesthetic category. Together with the analysis of the images, we presente definitions and reflections on the grotesque as approached by André Chastel, Wolfgang Kayser, and, mainly in Victor Hugo. For the French wiriter, the grotesque form is opposed to the classic and exists in nature and not world around us, even if in a kaleidoscope of (in)definitions. Other aesthetic categories are approached in parallel, such as the beauty, for which the grotesque appears as a contrast; the comic; the ugly, with its contrasting diversity to the unity of beauty. The images selected by Warburg pervade such theoretical reflections and reveal fundamental polarities to understand the expression of human commotions: Dionysian-Apollinae, madness-reason, animal-human, liberation-domestication, chaos-order, pathos-logos, distancing-immersion, energetic expansion – energy containment. This article also tries to understand a method in Aby Warburg, whether in the selection and organization of images on the panel; it shows Warburg thematic interests, in this case, festivals and popular traditions; and also, his interest in the dissonant, beyond reductionist generalizations and art history's canonical objects.

El panel contiene principalmente imágenes renacentistas, abordando temas que abarcan épocas desde la Antigüedad, como la danza de la moresca, el cortejo amoroso y el culto a la diosa Venus, el género pictórico de las Singeries y la batalla por los pantalones. Un panel dedicado únicamente a lo grotesco afirma el vigor de esta categoría estética. Junto al análisis de las imágenes, presentamos definiciones y reflexiones sobre lo grotesco en la perspectiva de André Chastel, Wolfgang Kayser y, principalmente, de Victor Hugo. Para el escritor francés, la forma grotesca se opone a la clásica y existe en la naturaleza y no en el mundo que nos rodea, aunque sea en un caleidoscopio de (in)definiciones. En paralelo se abordan otras categorías estéticas, como la belleza, para la cual lo grotesco aparece como contraste; lo cómico; lo feo, con su diversidad contrastante a la unidad de la belleza. Las imágenes seleccionadas por Warburg impregnan tales reflexiones teóricas y revelan polaridades fundamentales para comprender la expresión de las conmociones humanas: Dionisíaco-Apollinae, locura-razón, animal-humano, liberación-domesticación, caos-orden, pathos-logos, distanciamiento-inmersión, energía expansión – contención de energía. Este artículo también trata de comprender un método en Aby Warburg, ya sea en la selección y organización de imágenes en el panel; muestra intereses temáticos de Warburg, en este caso, fiestas y tradiciones populares; y también, su interés por lo disonante, más allá de las generalizaciones reduccionistas y los objetos canónicos de la história del arte.A categoria do grotesco é abordada através da análise da prancha 32 do Atlas Mnemosyne de Aby Warburg. Nela encontram-se imagens relativas principalmente ao Renascimento, abordando temas que atravessam os tempos desde a Antiguidade, como a dança da moresca, a corte amorosa e o culto à deusa Vênus, o gênero pictórico das Singeries (macaquices) e a luta pelos calções. Constata-se o vigor da categoria estética do grotesco, quando Aby Warburg dedica uma prancha apenas para ela. Juntamente com a análise das imagens, percorre-se as definições e reflexões sobre o grotesco em André Chastel, Wolfgang Kayser, e, principalmente em Victor Hugo, com seu postulado fundamental de que a forma grotesca se opõe ao clássico e existe na natureza e no mundo em nossa volta, mesmo que em um caleidoscópio de (in) definições. Outras categorias estéticas são abordadas em paralelo, como o belo, para o qual o grotesco surge como contraste; o cômico; o feio, com sua diversidade contrastante à unidade do belo. As imagens selecionadas por Warburg perpassam tais discussões teóricas e revelam polaridades fundamentais para compreender a expressão das comoções humanas: dionisíaco- apolíneo, loucura-razão, animal-humano, libertação-domesticação, caos-ordem, pathos-logos, distanciamento-imersão, expansão energética – contenção energética. Buscou-se igualmente compreender um método em Aby Warburg, seja na seleção e organização das imagens na prancha; seus interesses temáticos, nesse caso, as festas e tradições populares; o seu interesse pelo dissonante, para além das generalizações reducionistas e dos objetos canônicos da história da arte.Universidade do Estado de Santa Catarina2023-06-07info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://www.revistas.udesc.br/index.php/palindromo/article/view/2358910.5965/2175234615362023e0006Palíndromo; Vol. 15 No. 36 (2023): As artimanhas do grotesco no contemporâneo; 1-33Palíndromo; v. 15 n. 36 (2023): As artimanhas do grotesco no contemporâneo; 1-332175-23461984-953210.5965/2175234615362023reponame:Palíndromo (Online)instname:Universidade do Estado de Santa Catarina (UDESC)instacron:UDESCporhttps://www.revistas.udesc.br/index.php/palindromo/article/view/23589/15606Copyright (c) 2023 Sandra Makowiecky, Luana Maribele Wedekinhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMakowiecky, SandraWedekin, Luana Maribele2024-02-29T13:56:33Zoai::article/23589Revistahttps://www.revistas.udesc.br/index.php/palindromoPUBhttps://www.revistas.udesc.br/index.php/palindromo/oaipalindromorevista@gmail.com || revistapalindromo@udesc.br2175-23461984-9532opendoar:2024-02-29T13:56:33Palíndromo (Online) - Universidade do Estado de Santa Catarina (UDESC)false
