| Summary: | This article investigates human interaction with other animals and examines its representation or presentation in contemporary art, considering ethical issues involved in this process. The Ecofeminist perspective is proposed as a critical tool to analyse artworks that deal with animals. Within this ecofeminist approach, the works by the artists: Joseph Beuys, Jannis Kounnellis, Wiliam Wegman and Beatriz da Costa are discussed. It is also considered the video installation Cooperari, by Silvana & Frederico Macêdo, produced in the context of this study. |
