I carry out, on the one hand, an evaluative analysis of the specificities and the contributions of this São Paulo artist’s unorthodox and (self) questioning Experiência nº 2 (1931), at the crossroads of different art forms, generic hybridization and the performance acts that it generates. On the other hand, I also examine the cultural encyclopaedia of the psychological and anthropological pensum that lies behind this experiential action-test, the Dadaist, expressionist and surrealist plastic- interventionist mode it obeys, and finally, the fierce criticism that contains implicit determinisms, the symbolic domination and the taxing ritualism. %U https://lbr.uwpress.org/content/wplbr/55/2/36.full.pdf
