UIDB/04209/2020 UIDP/04209/2020 ; In which ways is conservation expanding to allow for an ethical care of performance artworks? This article draws on feminist epistemologies – primarily Donna Haraway's 'situated knowledges' – to develop a critical enquiry on the politics and ethics in the conservation of performance artworks. Beginning by rehearsing those feminist perspectives in the context of the conservation of contemporary art, through the exploration of the activist performance artwork Música Negativa (Negative Music), created by the Portuguese artist E.M. de Melo e Castro in 1965, the article then looks at the situated knowledges that are part of the process of mapping the material history of performance art. ; publishersversion ; published

Performance art has seen growing incorporation in museum collections in the last decade, and yet Conservation is still struggling to find methods to conserve these artworks, which resist acts of containement. In the context of the present research, three problems hampering progress in the conservation of performance art were identified: (1) Conservation's scope is often seen in opposition to the nature of performance artworks, (2) there is a lack of an epistemological analysis of Conservation's documentation methodologies, and (3) there are difficulties in managing the artwork's networks in institutional contexts. The third problem is beyond the scope of this thesis, as this project was undertaken outside an institutional setting. This thesis therefore sheds light on the first two issues by drawing on agential realism (Karen Barad 2007), an epistemological lens which considers that every act of knowing implies material and discursive entanglements within every agent involved. To answer the first problem, a relational ontology of Conservation, which considers that Conservation practice, instead of being associated only with tangible objects, constitutes and is coconstituted by material-discursive practices, is proposed. Following this reasoning the act of conservation is then presented as a set of decisions, which vary in scale and produce materialisations of artistic manifestations. This thesis argues that cultural heritage works, including performance art, are thus always intangible until being materialised by heritage practices, which are characterised by specific ways of seeing, or measurements. In this sense it will be demonstrated that performance art, instead of existing only in the present, exists in various material ways, which are recursively disseminated over time through practices of memorialisation. To understand the second problem, two performance artworks created in the 1970s by Portuguese artists have been documented for the first time in this thesis. The case study analyses demonstrate how current methodologies are focused on perfomance-based art's materials instead of its materiality and how that process increases the number of exclusions in the documentation process. Exclusions are then explained as acts of affirmation of the dominant cultural and political discourse and, in that sense, contribute to the invisibility of counter-narratives which not only co-constitute but are an intentional part of the fabric of performance artworks. Aside from implying a constant delimitation in the materialisation of these works, exclusions also immortalise social injustices in the form of, for example, community misrecognition. Participation, understood in the broad sense as an act of yielding authority, is proposed as a way to materialise performance artworks while reducing the exclusions that occur in every documentation process. This thesis argues that a dislocation of authority to peripheral stakeholders is not a loss of authorial power, but a way to multiply the instances of the work in multiple body-archives. An outcome of this dissertation, is a proposal and detailed outline for an innovative methodology for documenting performance art works.

ResumoO presente trabalho tem por objetivo comparar duas metodologias para cálculo de desalinhamento cambial. A primeira metodologia consiste na estimação do desalinhamento cambial a partir de técnicas multivariadas de séries de tempo nas quais apenas variáveis associadas ao país em análise são utilizadas na modelagem. A segunda metodologia consiste na utilização de fatores globais, como sugerido pelo Modelo Vetorial Autorregressivo com Correção de Erros Global (VAR-MCEG). O caso brasileiro é analisado a partir das duas metodologias. Os resultados sugerem que as estimativas podem diferir em magnitude para diferentes períodos. Ambas as metodologias sugerem que o canal pelo qual termos de troca afetam a taxa de câmbio real brasileiro é indireto. Melhorias de termos de troca levam a uma melhora da posição internacional de investimento e, logo, geram uma valorização da moeda brasileira. Os resultados da metodologia GVECM sugerem que a taxa de câmbio real brasileira é afetada no longo prazo pelo nível de taxa de câmbio real dos seus parceiros comerciais.

The aim of this study is to characterize the current status of blended learning in Portugal, given that b-learning has grown exponentially in the Portuguese market over recent years. 38 organizations (representing 68% of all institutions certified to provide distance training by the Government Labour Office – DGERT -) participated in this study. The results revealed that in 2007, although the predominant instructional format in Portugal was still face-to-face training (65%), e-learning at 15% came in behind b-learning with 20%. Data also revealed that 50% of distance training department coordinators believe that b-learning produces better training outcomes than face-to-face training alone, when considering the same content and learning objectives. Furthermore, when comparing b-learning and e-learning outcomes with similar content and learning objectives, 78.1% of these coordinators declared that b-learning produces better outcomes than e-learning alone. Hence, the content analysis indicated positive perceptions with regard to the future direction of b-learning, leading to the conclusion that in the long-term, corporate b-learning training will develop considerably in this country.
