ARTE MENOR COMO PRODUCCIÓN DE GRUPOS, MÁQUINAS Y/O AGENCIAMIENTOS: EL SENTIDO DE UNA «ESTÉTICA» EN FÉLIX GUATTARI ENTRE 1955 Y 1980

This article problematizes the meaning of an «aesthetic» in the work of Félix Guattari. Unlike the existing bibliography that focuses on Deleuze’s work, on the joint work of Deleuze and Guattari and on Guattari’s late notion of aesthetic paradigm, here we propose alternatively to deal with the French militant’s early period. Since references to art run through the totality of his writings, it is a double movement here: to delimit the multiple indications on art (and aesthetics), as well as to link them to the rest of the Guattarian discursive universe. Our research question is therefore the following: what conceptualization of art does he envision for himself between 1955 and 1980? For this purpose, we divide the text into three sections: a problematizing introduction, a body where we chronologically visit the texts in order to obtain the meanings of a possible «aesthetics» and a closing by way of conclusion.
