In this article I intend to think the intersection between public space, political performances and media transmission from the point of view of the anthropology of performance. Through the reading of an urban riot uprising which took place in 1959 in Niterói, The Revolt of the Ferries, I proposed to the participants in a workshop at the Fluminense Federal University in November 2014, a performative installation to revisit the riot memory and, above all, to reenact it from a political point of view considering the recent conflicts associated with the Free Pass Movement in Brazil. I start by analyzing a set of imagery of recent protests in Portugal, the United States, Spain and Brazil in order to find out similar traits in the performance of those political mobilization and in the answer given by the dominant power. "Artivism" emerges as a concept to be explored in contemporary political protests. Throughout the article I will try to highlight its activist performativity, its "carnavalization" effects and its possible articulations between repertoires and archives.Translation: Barbara Theoto Lambert ; Neste artigo pretendo pensar do ponto vista da antropologia da performance o cruzamento entre espaço público, performances políticas e mediatização. Através da leitura de uma revolta urbana espoletada em 1959 em Niterói, a Revolta das Barcas, propus aos participantes de um curso-oficina na Universidade Federal Fluminense, em Novembro de 2014, uma instalação-performativa para revisitar sua memória e, sobretudo, para a reatualizá-la de um ponto de vista político face aos conflitos recentes associados ao Movimento Passe Livre no Brasil. Começo por analisar um conjunto imagético de protestos recentes em Portugal, stados Unidos, Espanha e Brasil para explicitar traços semelhantes no modo de atuação dessas mobilizações políticas e na resposta dada pelo poder dominante. "Artivismo" emerge como conceito a explorar nos protestos políticos contemporâneos. Ao longo do artigo, tentarei sublinhar a sua performatividade ativista, seus efeitos de carnavalização e suas possíveis articulações entre repertórios e arquivos.

The city of Beijing in 2009 is totally different than it was 20 years earlier, when student riots reached their culmination in the violence of Tiananmen Square. This paper describes the current modern city, with its futurist buildings, the structures built for the 2008 Olympic Games, modern commercial centers, leisure spaces such as Sanlitun Village, art districts, the greater number of luxury cars, in fact, cars of all kinds, the transit system networks, etc. Most important of all, however, is China's prominence in the political & economic world.
