Abstract
A partir de una taxonomía del arte, se propone una investigación sobre el tema del cuerpo, el desnudo,
el deseo y cómo estos han sido sistemáticamente censurados en los espacios expositivos costarricenses
por su relación con el pudor, lo inadecuado y el pecado. A pesar de la censura, algunos artistas costarricenses
han trabajado el tema del cuerpo desde diferentes perspectivas y visiones, con discursos alternativos
que intentan abordar lo erótico y el deseo como una parte normal de la vida del ser humano.
La presente investigación formula un inventario resumido desde las culturas precolombinas hasta las
últimas expresiones artísticas contemporáneas, con el afán de estudiar los diferentes contextos en donde
la censura y la prohibición han tomado lugar en el arte costarricense.
From the taxonomy of art, this investigation proposes a look into the theme of the body, nakedness and desire, which have been systematically censored from the exhibition spaces in Costa Rica, due to the relation they have with what is improper, inadequate and sinful. In spite of the censure, few Costa Rican artists have worked the theme of the body from different perspectives, with alternative points of view to use the body image to talk about eroticism and desire as a normal part of the life of any human being. This investigation tries to create a summarized inventory which goes from the pre-Columbian culture expressions to the latest more contemporary ones, with the main objective of studying different context where the censure has taken place in the Costa Rican art.
