Abstract

The terminology, Artistic Gymnastics, suggests a major role of the aesthetic aspect of this sport and points out an intersection between sport and art. This article discusses the premises of this intersection using the concepts from aesthetics field and the characteristics observed in the current context of this sport. It is noticed that one of the greatest wealth of this sport lies in the union between these two phenomena, but the artistic content has been overlooked, undervalued or underused in practice. Brazil can make his mark on Artistic Gymnastics world scenario through the combination, the hybridism and the inventiveness that are Brazilian aesthetic characteristics that can influence the expressive and artistic contents of this sport.
