OEI # 60–61 Extra-disciplinary spaces and de-disciplinizing moments. In and out of the 30th Bienal de São Paulo is not a delayed catalogue of the aforementioned Bienal of 2012 titled, “The Imminence of Poetics.” While documenting selected parts of this immense Bienal, OEI #60–61 is conceived as a reading of the works and effects produced by it, reformatting this material and creating new relations between the works and documents in the aesthetic medium which is the magazine. Starting from the Bienal, OEI #60–61 is also extending or supplementing aspects of it by commissioning new texts or works by participating artists. It also puts the Bienal into perspective by including artists and poets who were not part of it, and by pointing at alternative constellations and curatorial or museological histories, such as the philosopher Vilém Flusser’s involvement with the São Paulo Bienal in the 70s and 80s, or Walter Zanini’s experimental approach to curatorial work avant la lettre in the 60s and the 70s at the Museu de Arte Contemporânea da Universidade de São Paulo, where Cristina Freire is today is prolonging this work in other registers and moduses. A specific local and social, institutional and topographical setting is also set by paying special attention to two of the most radical art groups in São Paulo in the late 70s and early 80s: Arte/Ação and 3nós3.
