Resumo: This article reflects on the complex relationship between street artists, their performances and urban space. For this reflection, we draw upon a study conducted in the Baixa, located in the historic centre of the city of Lisbon, Portugal. Methodologically, the study involved shadowed observation, including walks and videography, which took place between 2016 and 2021, as well as a set of 15 interviews with street artists which were conducted in 2018. Conceptually, the study draws upon the growing body of works within the scope of sensory geography and ethnomusicology, namely regarding street artists and their performances, and their intersection with economic issues, aspects of urbanity, the influence of tourism and sensory experiences. Our results reveal the process of territorialization of performance sites in Lisbon’s Baixa, the impact of artistic performances in the public space, and the relationship of street artists with the formal agents of the urban economy. We conclude the article with a brief reflection on the significance of tourism for the expansion of busking.

Para esta reflexão, baseamo-nos num estudo desenvolvido na Baixa lisboeta, localizada no centro histórico da cidade de Lisboa, Portugal. Metodologicamente, o estudo implicou observação sombreada com recurso a caminhadas e à videografia entre 2016 e 2021, bem como um conjunto de 15 entrevistas realizadas a artistas de rua em 2018. Conceptualmente, o estudo recorre ao crescente corpo de bibliografia no âmbito da geografia sensorial e da etnomusicologia, nomeadamente em relação aos artistas de rua e às suas performances, e a sua intersecção com questões económicas, os aspetos da urbanidade, a influência do turismo e as experiências sensoriais. Os nossos resultados desvendam o processo de territorialização dos locais de performance na Baixa lisboeta, o impacto das performances artísticas no espaço público, e a relação dos artistas de rua com os agentes formais da economia urbana. Concluímos o artigo com uma breve reflexão sobre a importância do turismo para a expansão do busking.Universidade Federal da Bahia2021-07-10info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufba.br/index.php/geotextos/article/view/4468410.9771/geo.v17i1.44684GeoTextos; Vol. 17, N. 1 (julho de 2021)1984-55371809-189Xreponame:GeoTextos (Online)instname:Universidade Federal da Bahia (UFBA)instacron:UFBAporhttps://periodicos.ufba.br/index.php/geotextos/article/view/44684/24944Copyright (c) 2021 Daniel Paiva, António Cláudio do Nascimento Silvainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSilva, António Cláudio do NascimentoPaiva, Daniel2021-08-16T15:50:54Zoai:ojs.periodicos.ufba.br:article/44684Revistahttps://periodicos.ufba.br/index.php/geotextosPUBhttps://periodicos.ufba.br/index.php/geotextos/oaiangeloserpa@hotmail.com||rodrigomei@hotmail.com1984-55371809-189Xopendoar:2021-08-16T15:50:54GeoTextos (Online) - Universidade Federal da Bahia (UFBA)false
