They will allow us to outline a framework of philosophical references and case studies around the themes of gesture and play in urban space. The aim is, on the one hand, to analyse the pertinence of the question of human gesture, how it is worked on by photography and cinema and can thus reveal the complex relationship that we have with space and with others. The aim is, on the other hand, to examine the aesthetic relevance of the concept of play, how it relates to the topic of chance and how it can involve an exercise of political and\/or imaginative freedom. Given the heterogeneous and often conflicting dimension of our cities, attending to these concepts and the way artistic practices invoke them is also a contemporary task.<strong>N\u00e9lio Concei\u00e7\u00e3o<\/strong> is a research fellow at the Nova Institute of Philosophy (IFILNOVA), School of Social Sciences and Humanities, Universidade NOVA de Lisboa. He obtained his PhD in philosophy (aesthetics) from the Universidade NOVA de Lisboa in 2013, with a thesis on the relation between philosophy and photography. He was a visiting scholar at PUC &#8211; S\u00e3o Paulo (2015) and ZfL-Berlin (2016). His research focuses on aesthetics and theory of art, and he has been working on the philosophical and artistic ramifications of Walter Benjamin\u2019s work, urban aesthetics, the concept of play, and aesthetic values, topics that are at the core of his latest publications. He is currently co-coordinating the FCT-funded project \u201cFragmentation and Reconfiguration: Experiencing the City between Art and Philosophy\u201d and recently co-edited the volumes <em>Aesthetics and Values: Contemporary Perspectives<\/em> (Mimesis International, 2021) and <em>Conceptual Figures of Fragmentation and Reconfiguration<\/em> (IFILNOVA, 2021).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Open Class","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":8398,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"multilingual_post_translation":"{\"pt-PT\":{\"url\":\"https:\/\/www.ipleiria.pt\/esadcr\/?p=16055\",\"postID\":null,\"postTitle\":\"\",\"siteID\":17,\"customURL\":true,\"languageInfo\":{\"multilingual_site_api_url\":\"https:\/\/www.ipleiria.pt\/esadcr\/wp-json\/\",\"name\":\"Portugu\u00eas\",\"locale\":\"pt_PT\"}}}","custompostfields_homepage-title":"Gesture and play - N\u00e9lio Concei\u00e7\u00e3o","custompostfields_banners":"","custompostfields_event-date":"2022-03-18","custompostfields_event-end-date":"2022-03-18","custompostfields_front-page-thumbnail":"","custompostfields_front-page-gallery-thumbnails":""},"categories":[59,20],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ipleiria.pt\/esadcr-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8396"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ipleiria.pt\/esadcr-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ipleiria.pt\/esadcr-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ipleiria.pt\/esadcr-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/16"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ipleiria.pt\/esadcr-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8396"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www.ipleiria.pt\/esadcr-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8396\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8402,"href":"https:\/\/www.ipleiria.pt\/esadcr-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8396\/revisions\/8402"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ipleiria.pt\/esadcr-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8398"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ipleiria.pt\/esadcr-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8396"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ipleiria.pt\/esadcr-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8396"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ipleiria.pt\/esadcr-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8396"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
