abstract
From the contrast between Robert Rauschenberg’s Barge and Théodore Géricault’s Le Radeau de la Méduse, this article discusses the context in which they were introduced, the development of their critical reception and their mixing with different historiographical meanings, taking into account the need for setting up critical returns and conceptual dislocations. By evoking authors that propose interpretative models approaching contemporary art, this article contributes to the hypothesis that argues for a homology between different forms of discourse, being the plastic and the theoretical ones under the logic of montage table. This article received a grant from CNPq.
