The body without organs is a concept that, although it emerged with the playwright Artaud, was developed by Deleuze and Guattari to discuss the multiple possibilities of experimentation of the body beyond its stratification as an organism. This article implies a reflection on the territories of the body in contemporary manifestations of the visual arts, about its functionality, its spaces, and its conditioning. It is understood that the stratification, territorialization, and normalization of the bodies are crossed by the designs of cisheteronormativity, which demands from them certain sexual and gender behaviors. Considering that the school, according to Foucault’s research, represents an institution traditionally directed to the functioning of discipline and regulation of bodies, making them docile and close to the norm; in this scenario, the arts, as a field of knowledge, mean a pedagogical path to approach and question the territories of the body, its manifestations, as well as the multiplicity inherent in it.

Palabras clave : body without organs; visual arts; school.
