“…No espaço público das grandes cidades, a confluência de expressões culturais regionais pode tanto gerar uma atmosfera de intercâmbio internacional como um sentimento de inautenticidade devido à constante repetição dos mesmos tropos culturais. Embora nestes espaços se possa encontrar expressões artísticas diferentes entre si, em várias capitais europeias encontraríamos mesclas semelhantes de expressões e estilos artísticos (DOUGHTY;LAGERQVIST, 2014).…”

Este artigo pretende refletir sobre a complexa relação entre os artistas de rua, as suas performances e o espaço urbano. Para esta reflexão, baseamo-nos num estudo desenvolvido na Baixa lisboeta, localizada no centro histórico da cidade de Lisboa, Portugal. Metodologicamente, o estudo implicou observação sombreada com recurso a caminhadas e à videografia entre 2016 e 2021, bem como um conjunto de 15 entrevistas realizadas a artistas de rua em 2018. Conceptualmente, o estudo recorre ao crescente corpo de bibliografia no âmbito da geografia sensorial e da etnomusicologia, nomeadamente em relação aos artistas de rua e às suas performances, e a sua intersecção com questões económicas, os aspetos da urbanidade, a influência do turismo e as experiências sensoriais. Os nossos resultados desvendam o processo de territorialização dos locais de performance na Baixa lisboeta, o impacto das performances artísticas no espaço público, e a relação dos artistas de rua com os agentes formais da economia urbana. Concluímos o artigo com uma breve reflexão sobre a importância do turismo para a expansão do busking.AbstractURBAN ECONOMY AND STREET ARTISTS: PERFORMANCE, MOBILITY, AND CONFLICT IN A TOURISTIFIED PUBLIC SPACEThis article reflects on the complex relationship between street artists, their performances and urban space. For this reflection, we draw upon a study conducted in the Baixa, located in the historic centre of the city of Lisbon, Portugal. Methodologically, the study involved shadowed observation, including walks and videography, which took place between 2016 and 2021, as well as a set of 15 interviews with street artists which were conducted in 2018. Conceptually, the study draws upon the growing body of works within the scope of sensory geography and ethnomusicology, namely regarding street artists and their performances, and their intersection with economic issues, aspects of urbanity, the influence of tourism and sensory experiences. Our results reveal the process of territorialization of performance sites in Lisbon’s Baixa, the impact of artistic performances in the public space, and the relationship of street artists with the formal agents of the urban economy. We conclude the article with a brief reflection on the significance of tourism for the expansion of busking.

This study presents an investigation into the multiple and often marginalised ways of being, knowing, educating, and performing the complex identity of migrant musicianship. It examines the lived experiences of migrant musicians in South East Queensland and is based on the premise that cultural diversity as experienced through music creates value in ways that are complex, particularly in the context of displaced lives. The article is built on the conceptual framework wherein 'capacitating' the self and other is an enacted aggregate of the following multidimensional affordances: emotional expression, social interaction, self-identity, and agency. It argues that the wide range of activities that migrant musicians undertake in their new homes not only builds capacity in them but also adds culturally-derived value to their lives and the lives of those that they encounter. By employing the methodology of Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis, the migrant female participant-researcher unpacks the motivations, rewards, and challenges that a purposive selection of Brisbane-based migrant musicians articulate. The emergent themes reveal three key features as central to the lives and livelihoods of migrant musicians: connectedness, self-identity, and wellbeing. The findings of this study hold implications for future research in cultural value, music education, and migrant studies.
