SUMMARY:

This research aims to present an ethnographic study on the life history of the artist Paulo Lyra, who lives and performs in the neighborhood of Felipe Camarão a periferic area at Natal (RN), in Brazil. To develop this dissertation, an investigation was carried out in order to understand the reality of this subject, considering his work in the field of popular culture through initiatives that aim to maintain the memory of popular traditions and in parallel with the social contexts that made his trajectory, those full of difficulties that made it hard to carry out his work, a passion for art is revealed that drives him to remain resistant. The motivation for this research is based on my experience as an educator in the Study Skills Project (PHE), a social project carried out by the Social Service of Commerce - SESC in partnership with Núcleo de Amparo ao Menor - NAM, in the neighborhood of Felipe Camarão, when I had the opportunity to get to know the community, its social and cultural reality and also the artist Paulo Lyra, where I could observe his performance and representativeness in popular culture, from his participation in the projects developed by the NAM. For a broader understanding of the thematic axes that make up this research, a study based on theorists Marilena Chauí (2008), Stuart Hall (2005) and Manuel Castells (2002) was essential to conceptualize Popular Culture, Cultural Identity and Resistance. As for the methodology used to achieve the objectives, it started from an ethnographic study of the life history of the artist Paulo Lyra based on complementary methods that made possible the paths taken to validate the questions of this investigation. As a result, it was concluded that popular culture is underserved by the State and that multipliers of cultural traditions, active and resistant to adversities, are of great importance for the permanence of popular culture and cultural identity of a people.
