项目摘要

LGBTQ+ populations worldwide have struggled for a long time to create original pathways to resist prejudice and attain self-expression. Cities provide opportunities for getting together in spaces where a community/social network can be developed due to their more tolerant, diverse and open milieus (Doderer, 2011). This project addresses a major cultural event in the urban life of Rio de Janeiro which despite its global visibility has received little scholarly attention in relation to the city's intersectional LGBTQ+ communities and their ability to appropriate otherwise hostile urban geographies in one of the countries with the highest rates of homo- and trans-phobic violence. Carnival, as Gontijo (2009) points out, is the foremost ritual of within Brazilian culture and promotes 'unusually' positive social attitudes towards queer bodies. During the celebrationperiod in Brazil, an utopic climate is instated celebrating the absence of hierarchy, power, money and physical effort. Musicality, dance and multiple art forms seek to equalise all subjects and create a social bond. This is defined as a moment of 'freedom' when people have the opportunity to go about their lives 'in reverse' (DaMatta, 1986). Therefore, the overarching focus of this research is to investigate the role of LGBTQ+ carnival street movements (blocos) in shaping Rio's queer urban geography beyond the most spectacular and tourist-oriented events. The project will contribute to understanding everyday queerness through iconic performances and year-round practices of organising and preparation

全球LGBTQ+种群已经在很长一段时间内努力创造原始的途径来抵抗偏见和实现自我表达。城市提供了在社区/社交网络可以开发的空间中聚集的机会，因为它们的宽容，多样化和开放的环境（Doderer，2011年）。该项目介绍了里约热内卢城市生活中的一项重大文化活动，尽管它的全球知名度与该市的LGBTQ+社区有关的学术知名度很少，及其在同种和传播暴力率最高的国家之一中适当敌对的城市地区的能力。正如Gontijo（2009）指出的那样，狂欢节是巴西文化中最重要的仪式，并促进了对酷儿身体的“异常”积极的社会态度。在巴西的CelebrationPeriod期间，庆祝缺乏等级制，权力，金钱和体力劳动的乌托邦气候。音乐性，舞蹈和多种艺术形式旨在使所有主题均衡并建立社会纽带。当人们有机会反向享受生活时，这被定义为“自由”的时刻（Damatta，1986）。因此，这项研究的总体重点是调查LGBTQ+狂欢节运动（Blocos）在塑造里约热内卢城市地理上的作用，超出了最壮观和面向旅游的事件。该项目将通过标志性的表演和全年组织和准备的实践来有助于理解日常酷儿
