Zusammenfassung:This article analyzes the North-American sadomasochist and fetishist magazine Bizarre, edited from 1946 to 1959 by John Willie. We propose a reflection about the interaction between the content of the magazine and its readers, as observed primarily in the the correspondence sections. After a brief introduction about the practices and the network grouped under the acronym BDSM, we will search the pages of Bizarre for different modes of agency of images, object and texts, and their effect on bodies, actions and sexual desires usually regarded as 'deviant. These modes of agency will be divided into excitation, imagination, identification and multiplication, allowing for a discussion with theories about fetishism, the agency of images, and the shaping of sexualized identities. Keywords: Fetishism; Sadomasochism; Bizarre; Agency; Image. Tomando como corpus de analise a revista sadomasoquista e fetichista norteamericana Bizarre, editada entre 1946 e 1959 por John Willie, o presente artigo busca refletir sobre a relacao entre o conteudo da publicacao e seus leitores, evidenciada sobretudo nas paginas de suas secoes de correspondencia. Apos uma breve apresentacao das praticas e da rede agrupada sob a sigla BDSM, buscaremos, nas paginas de Bizarre, diferentes modulacoes de agencia de imagens, objetos e textos e seus efeitos sobre praticas, corpos e desejos sexuais tidos como 'desviantes'. Tais modulacoes serao divididas a partir das ideias de excitacao, imaginacao, identificacao e multiplicacao, a partir das quais, serao esbocados debates com teorias sobre o fetichismo, a agencia das imagens e a formacao identitaria. Palavras-chave: fetichismo, sadomasoquismo, Bizarre, agencia, imagem.
