La ciudad poseida. Miradas fotográficas sobre lo urbano como fuente de conocimiento social

Abstract

By means of photography we can discover an endless cosmos of interpretation and knowledge of cities as stages where human life develops. The photographic image, through its composition, plastic and rhetorical resources offers us the possibility of discovering significant parameters from various points of view. From a real conception, passing by intrusions in advertising or art, it provides us interesting data about the symbolism and the very cultural development of the era the photograph is made. To know the forms of creation, as well as to distinguish their discernment paradigms, will help us understand and find elements of reality and subjectivity in the visual message.
