Abstract

This article aims to analyze the territorialization of Paraná’s riverside landscape by means of two case studies. They illustrate a particular relationship between performing arts and the central riverbank of Rosario. The process took place between the end of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st century and relied on the recycling of railway structures. The hypothesis of this work is that the cultural production of the riverside through performing arts was subjected to hybridization, integration, negotiation, tension and conflict among diverse cultural agents (they were individual, communal/autonomous, institutional and governmental). The first case reconstructs the creation of Casa del Tango in a railway warehouse after the eviction of an autonomous cultural center largely dedicated to circus performing arts: Galpón Okupa. The second case analyzes the creation of Escuela Municipal de Artes Urbanas which is mainly focused on performing arts in a port warehouse that had once been the setting of a semiautonomous squatting. Both developments seek to highlight the problems of urban cultural governmentality.
