Abstract

This work intends to undertake a comparative reading of two works of two different artists: The painting “The Origin of the World”by Gustave Courbet and the poem “OrigoVitae” by Haroldo de Campos and, from this reading, to verify how the border between the visible and the invisible may vanish and how, in a process of transcodifying, one mirrors the other in a dialogue that, besides surpassing different codes and times, produces new meanings and elicits a conversation about the act of reading these different codes.
