Abstract

This assay analyzes the emergency of the confessions in the contemporary artistic scene. We analyse the documentary film “33” of the Brazilian movie maker Kiko Goifman and  the work of the English artist Tracey Emin. We undertake the attempt to establish relations between the psychoanalysis, the biographical universe of the artists where the life and all the weight of the privacy, figure as the  main subject. The existence passes to be understood as work of art, in a thought that associates  life and art, individual and artist. We intend problematize the process of the subjetivation of the "self" where the biographical invention confers new possibilities to the art.
