Portuguese term or phrase: um enclave demarcado
This is a text by an art critic on artist Milton Machado and his work ‘History of the Future’. The spherical Nomad is a character in History of the Future. Thanks for your help!


A esfera-nômade de Milton encontraria, portanto, novas definições e pares conforme se desloca, não necessariamente apenas em Cidades-Mais-que-Perfeitas, mas no mundo da arte, no mundo todo, quando ela pode se passar por uma escultura de Walter de Maria ou pela Esfera de Goethe. Não dizemos aqui que ela vem a se confundir com aquelas e outras, mas que, em se tratando de um trabalho aberto, ele se permite “camuflar-se”, atrair esses novos espelhamentos; sua paródia corresponde, portanto, ao moto (perpétuo) mobilidade como exterioridade. Ser é desfazer-se de essências e, ao indicar esta condição de permanente mudança (e isto foi pensado 30 anos antes de se falar de “forma-viagem”...), ele tenciona o ponto de encontro entre modernidade/hipo-modernidade (“maneirismo”)/ultra-modernidade/pós-modernidade, isto é, ***um enclave demarcado*** desde a metade final dos anos 1960.
