Abstract

Expanded by technological development, human movement in contemporary times has been configured as several forms of dispersion (both physical and ideological). In its centrifugal expansion, the dispersion disregards collective aspects of the interrelational network in which we exist in favor of selfreferring attitudes, such as economic growth or utilitarianism. However, dispersion takes on a different meaning if reflected in the field of art. As a mechanism of collectivity, it enables reflection upon altruism and conviviality, which elucidates social ties that oppose dispersion. Research methods specific to the humanities and the arts are used here as a means of proposing the combination of images, symbols and concepts as a consistent methodology for research in Anthropology and Sociology of Art.
