Popis: This paper presents a dialogic reflection on carnivalization in Tarsila do Amaral. The painting Anthropophagy, composed by the syncrisis of A Negra and Abaporu, in dialogue with modern aesthetics, is the corpus, in comparison with other works of the author-creator. Our theoretical foundation is based on the concepts of dialogism and carnivalization of the Bakhtinian studies, mobilized together with verbivocovisual analytical description. Our aim is to reflect on the constitution(s) of identity(ies) through alterity(ies), that is, how much the voice of the other constitutes the voice of the self, composed of a clash that, in the case of Tarsila, constitutes the stylistic trait of her aesthetics, of an artistic identity and an image of Brazil. The relevance is related to the reflection on these conceptions, at a moment of resistances, ruptures and confirmations of traditions, such as the one experienced at the beginning of the last century, although used in another way, since being another historical time. The idea of nationality, of Brazilianness, of the self-other, internal-external, proper-alien rises brighter, as does the urgency to think of another-identity/otherness, heterogeneous, special, responsive and responsible, in the discursive link that constitutes a new-old era and this is the ethical proposal of this work.
