Consequently, this is an area which has been almost unexplored in the field of research on Youth and Work. However, many artists and many young people work through the art they perform. Based on the case of circus artists in the city of Buenos Aires, we will discuss this idea of opposition between arts and work analyzing the labor market, the work strategies and the significance that artists give to their practices. We will study the distinctions between the characteristics of these artistic and labor practices in the decade of 1990 and the current situation regarding recent changes in the labor market and the shift in the legitimacy occupied by circus arts. La persistencia del supuesto que coloca al arte como esfera diferencial y autónoma, ha provocado la invisibilización de la dimensión laboral de las prácticas artísticas asentando representaciones sociales dicotómicas acerca del arte y el trabajo. Consecuentemente, éste es un terreno poco explorado en el ámbito de las investigaciones sobre Juventud y Trabajo. No obstante, muchos artistas y muchos jóvenes trabajan desde el arte que realizan. A partir del caso de los artistas circenses en la ciudad de Buenos Aires, discutiremos esta idea de oposición entre arte y trabajo recorriendo los espacios de inserción laboral, las estrategias de trabajo y los sentidos que los artistas otorgan a sus prácticas. Analizaremos las distinciones entre las características de la práctica artístico-laboral en la década de 1990 y en la coyuntura actual en relación a transformaciones recientes en el mercado laboral y a cambios en el lugar de legitimación ocupado por el arte circense. A persistência da noção que coloca a arte como área diferencial e autónoma, levou à invisibilidade da dimensão do trabalho de prática artística sedimentando dicotômica representações sociais sobre a arte e trabalho. Por conseguinte, esta é uma área pouco explorada no campo da pesquisa sobre juventude e trabalho. No entanto, muitos artistas e muitos jovens trabalham a partir da arte que realizam. Desde o caso de artistas de circo na cidade de Buenos Aires, vamos discutir essa idéia de oposição entre arte e trabalho analisando espaços da empregabilidade, estratégias de trabalho e os sentidos que os artistas dão às suas práticas. Estudaremos as diferenças entre as características da prática artística y de trabalho própria da década de 1990 ea a situação actual em relação às recentes mudanças no mercado de trabalho e mudanças no espaço ocupado pelo arte circense. application/pdf https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/CAS/article/view/1384 10.34096/cas.i34.1384 spa Instituto de Ciencias Antropológicas, Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, UBA https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/CAS/article/view/1384/1321 Cuadernos de antropología social; Núm. 34 (2011); 141-163 1850-275X 0327-3776 Jóvenes Arte Trabajo Precariedad Arte circense Juventude Arte Trabalho Precariedade Arte circense Youth Art Work Precariousness Circus Arts Working as an artist.
