Summary |
Visual Studies emerged as a product of various social and cultural transformations that began in the sixties with epistemic modifications that had been made more than twenty years before by Walter Benjamin, such as the loss of the aura of the work of art and the consideration of the media. of masses as exhibition spaces that have nothing in common with traditional places. The fact is that, while the world is "visualized", individuals are unable to decode this new reality. Therefore, visual culture is interested in "visual events" that have a "consumer" as a central figure, who seeks pleasure. in some visual technology. What is thus claimed is the image as a carrier of meanings in the global perspective, which entails a certain fascination with technology and the questioning of the autonomy of art and the logic implicit in its social functioning. |
