Drummond of the world: a review of Maquinação do mundo - Drummond e a mineração by José Miguel Wisnik

Abstract

In this review, I aim to stress some of the features of Drummond’s oeuvres directly derived from his own material existence in a capitalist engineered world. A machinery that encompasses both humans and non-humans. Such proposal was born out of Wisnik’s new interpretation of the above-mentioned author. Thus, I try to highlight the importance of market society in order to better understand Drummond as someone imbedded in an entangled and polluted reality.
