DIALOGUE BETWEEN VISUAL ARTS AND LAW

the transformation of the concept of families

Abstract

Human relationships after important moments such as the Second World War have shown themselves to be increasingly transformed and flexible, generating great impacts on social life, an example of this is the scope and concept of family. It is verified that in more remote times family relationships were more lasting, either by the legal scope, that is, by the customary scope and this can be perceived in the works of Arts. Over the years, there is a greater liquidity of human actions that envision a change in transforming social vision and that ends up reflecting on the concept of family, a solid social institution. This can also be seen in the field of visual arts, evidencing this in the various works of art that make up the social universe. In this way, we seek to analyze the transformation of the concept of family portrayed from paintings and the significant portrait of art in works by national and international artists. The result of the research should enable the construction of a comparative line of the change in the concept of family resulting from the social transformation and the social and legal aspects, seeking to understand if there has been a liquidity of the concept of family or if, although with evolutions, it continues to remain as the institution solid foundation of social beginnings.
