Cinq thèmes vont servir de support aux exposés. « Le projet autobiographique», « pratique du genre », «La vie « filtrée»» suivra « L'invention de Soi» et pour finir « Ecriture et fiction ». Mes travaux d'études artistiques et intellectuelles ont été pressentis afin de libérer ma mémoire et pouvoir revisiter cette dernière il n'importe quels moments. De la sorte, cette mémoire mise en défaut. Par moment pour des raisons thérapeutiques, s'est trouvé stimulée par mes recherches. En revisitant les travaux que j'ai réalisés, je me suis rendu compte du peu de souvenance de certains faits alors que d'autres sont apparus complètement différents. Réalité proposée ou mensonge avéré lors des photomontages sont dans ma croyance d'une réalité plus réelle que la mienne. L’individualisme sort vainqueur d'un épisode de contradictions générales dans une société en proie à des connivences communautaristes ou des volontés fédératrices. Ma démonstration a apporté la signification que la société est univoque et que l'individu est unique. De ce point de vue, ma sensation d'appartenir à un modèle sociétal disparaît et mon travail fait le sens inverse en m'intégrant dans mon quotidien au mouvement de la société. J'ai conscience que les étapes actuelles peuvent m'être étrangères, que mes préoccupations peuvent m'être tout à fait lointaines, revenant avec l'aide de mes travaux à la perception de mes images construites : l'individuel et le global Ce qui m'intéresse au plus près ressemble plus aux dialogues entre les cultures et aux actions humaines immédiatement comprises. Ces deux éléments comportementaux, apparemment barbares comme deux matières à l'alliance impossible (fer et argile), rendent la situation des consciences contemporaines hétérogènes. Il me faut montrer, exemplifier par mes instincts de photographe que les éléments du quotidien, hétérogènes eux aussi et présents autour de moi, sont la nourriture de mon langage artistique. / Five themes will be used to support presentations. "The autobiographical project," "practice of gender", "Life" filtered "" will be followed by "The Invention of Self' and finally writing and fiction. My work artistic and intellectual studies were contacted to release my memory and be able to revisit it in any time. In this way, the memory at fault, at times for therapeutic reasons, has been stimulated by my research. By revisiting the work I have done, I realized how little recollection of facts or other appeared completely different. Proposed or actually lie in the photomontages are proved in mv belief a reality more real than mine. Individualism emerged victorious from an episode of general contradictions in a society plagued by collusion or communitarian federative intentions. My demonstration brought meaning that the company is unique and that the individual is unique. From this point of view, my sense of belonging to a social model disappears and my work is the opposite of me in my daily life including the movement of society. I am aware that I may be the current steps abroad, that my concerns I may be quite distant, returning with the help of my work to my perception of images constructed : the individual and the global, the I'm interested in closer, more like the dialogue between cultures and human actions immediately understood. Both behavioral elements, as two seemingly barbaric materials alliance impossible (iron and clay), make the situation of contemporary consciousness heterogeneous. I must show my instincts exemplify by photographer items daily, heterogeneous also present around me arc the food of my artistic language.

A leitura do trabalho é determinada pelo reconhecimento da paisagem como elemento poético e fruto de uma construção permanente. No contexto reflexivo a presente dissertação se sustenta a partir das articulações no âmbito das questões da imagem hoje e de aproximações com a montagem cinematográfica. Para tanto apresento uma dissertação dividida em Primeira Parte, "Caderno I: livro de imagens" e Segunda Parte, "Caderno II: reflexões"; sendo a leitura das imagens o ponto de partida para a reflexão que se segue. / Abstract: This study presents my artistic production between 2008 and 2010, and the issues involved in reflective and poetic series: Paisagem Salgada I, II, III, IV, V and Paisagem Presente I, II, III and IV. The reading of the work is determined by the recognition of landscape as a poetic element and the result of a permanent construction. Within a reflective point of view the present dissertation is based on the issues of contemporary image and its approach to film editing. In this context I present a dissertation shared in two peaces, the first part, "Caderno I: book of images" and "Caderno II: reflections", so the read of the images is a start for the reflections that follow. / Mestrado / Mestre em Artes

Os resultados deste estudo se fundamentam pela contribuição de uma rede de interlocutores, homens octogenários e sexagenários - aos quais denominamos de "confabuladores", reconhecidos pioneiros moradores da cidade paranaense - os quais por meio de suas histórias de vida, de um vivo fluxo de reminiscências em torno do viver e do lugar, da palavra e da imagem, nos revelaram, como sujeitos sociais, que reconhecem o entrelaçamento de seus destinos, com o destino da cidade em formação. Aliando às histórias de vida, uma sistematização para a leitura de antigas fotografias, o trabalho amplia o espectro de interpretações das narrativas, possibilitando experimentações para a recriação de representações de acontecimentos, lembranças do cotidiano e da fisionomia da cidade em seus primeiros anos de vida, o que identificamos como "fotomontagens". Memória, palavra e imagem se reúnem para a articulação de uma memória individual que conspira para uma possível memória coletiva, se permitindo novas visitações e projeções de sua natureza plural e infinita / Abstract: The objective of this research is to contribute to a composition methodological about of the memory of the city of Maringá, considering the condition of urban center planned at the end of the 1940s, at the initiative of the Companhia Melhoramentos do Paraná. The results of this study are based on contributions from a network of informers, men octogenarian and sexagenarian - which we call "the speculaters" recognized pioneer residents of the city of Paraná - which through their life stories, a live stream of reminiscences around the live and the place of word and image, we revealed, as social man, who recognize the intertwining of their fates, with the fate of the city in formation. Combining the stories of life, to a systematic reading of old photographs, the work broadens the spectrum of interpretations of the narratives, allowing trials for recreating representations of events, memories and everyday face of the city in their first years of life, which identified as "photomontage". Memory, word and image come together to articulate a personal memory that conspires for a possible collective memory, is enabling new visitations and projections of its pluralistic nature and infinite / Mestrado / Multimeios / Mestra em Multimeios

Dans ce mémoire, nous étudions la représentation du corps dans Aveux non avenus de Claude Cahun. Évoquant dans un premier temps quelques grands axes de l’histoire de la réflexion sur le corps et de sa représentation en Occident depuis l’Antiquité, en fonction de leur fécondité pour l’analyse de l’oeuvre de Cahun, nous procédons dans un deuxième temps à une analyse de la représentation du corps dans les fragments de texte qui composent Aveux non avenus, en insistant d’une part sur le rapport ambivalent au corps qui y est exprimé et d’autre part sur la relation étroite qui lie le corps à la problématique identitaire, centrale dans tout l’oeuvre cahunien. Nous étudions ensuite la façon dont le corps est représenté, en nous intéressant à l’écriture particulière que déploie Cahun dans les Aveux ainsi qu’à la démarche intermédiale qu’elle met en place à travers la présence des photomontages au sein du texte. Nous souhaitons ainsi démontrer que la représentation du corps est indissociable d’une réflexion sur l’identité et que le caractère double de cette représentation à travers le texte et l’image complexifie cette réflexion sans lui enlever sa cohérence. / This master’s paper focuses on the representation of the body in Claude Cahun’s Aveux non avenus. First evoking some important aspects of the history of the reflection on the body and of its representation in the Occident since Antiquity, with regards to their relevance for our analysis of Cahun’s work, we then proceed to an analysis of the representation of the body in the textual fragments composing Aveux non avenus, insisting on the ambivalent relationship to the body they express, and on the close relationship between the body and the problematic of identity, central in Cahun’s work as a whole. We then move on to analyze how the body is represented, focusing on the particular type of writing that Cahun uses in the Aveux as well as the intermedial approach that she develops through the presence of the photomontages in the text. We wish to demonstrate that the representation of the body is closely linked to a reflection on identity, and that the dual nature of this representation through text and image complexifies this reflection without taking away any of its coherence.

This thesis details the development and evaluation of a new photofitting approach. The motivation for this work is that current photofit systems used by the police - whether manual or computerized - do not appear to work very well. Part of the problem with these approaches is they involve a single facial representation that necessitates a verbal interaction. When a multiple presentation is considered, our innate ability to recognize faces is capitalized (and the potentially disruptive effect of the verbal component is reduced). The approach works by employing Genetic Algorithms to evolve a small group of faces to be more like a desired target. The main evolutionary influence is via user input that specifies the similarity of the presented images with the target under construction. The thesis follows three main phases of development. The first involves a simple system modelling the internal components of a face (eyes, eyebrows, nose and mouth) containing features in a fixed relationship with each other. The second phase applies external facial features (hair and ears) along with an appropriate head shape and changes in the relationship between features. That the underlying model is based on Principal Components Analysis captures the statistics of how faces vary in terms of shading, shape and the relationship between features. Modelling was carried out in this way to create more realistic looking photofits and to guard against implausible featural relationships possible with traditional approaches. The encouraging results of these two sections prompted the development of a full photofit system: EvoFIT. This software is shown to have continued promise both in the lab and in a real case. Future work is directed particularly at resolving issues concerning the anonymity of the database faces and the creation of photofits from the subject's memory of a target.

This thesis examines three photomontages by Berlin Dada artist Hannah Höch, The Beautiful Girl (1919-20), an untitled work from 1920, and Dada-Tanz (1922). It discusses how Höch used photomontage to fulfill the Dada mission of incorporating chaos into art as an expressive means of commenting on the sociopolitical climate of Germany post-World War I. These three photomontages specifically reveal Höch's concerns for female individuality in an environment of gender inequality during this early modern era.

Esta dissertação visa estudar a produção do fotógrafo Francisco Aszmann (1907 - 1987), húngaro naturalizado brasileiro, que foi um dos responsáveis pela popularização da fotomontagem no Brasil entre as décadas de 1950 e 1960. Logo que chegou ao país, em 1948, Francisco Aszmann fixou residência na cidade do Rio de Janeiro, onde trabalhou para a revista Sombra e abriu um estúdio comercial de fotografia que faria sucesso junto a elite carioca. Aszmann atuou não apenas como fotógrafo, mas também como professor de fotografia, membro de fotoclubes, autor de livros sobre fotomontagem, colaborador de periódicos da grande imprensa e editor da revista especializada Fotoarte. Para Aszmann, a fotografia so atingia o patamar da arte por meio da fotomontagem. Esta pesquisa tem entre seus principais objetivos contribuir para a revisão de sua obra, para a identificação de suas referências artísticas e para a sua contextualização de sua produção a partir do conceito de kitsch na arte. Apesar das inúmeras atividades que desenvolveu no campo da fotografia, o trabalho de Francisco Aszmann é praticamente desconhecido nos dias de hoje. Um romance em cada foto foi o título de uma seção publicada por ele na revista mensal A Cigarra, entre 1950 e 1955, que irá nos ajudar a compreender a sua concepção de fotografia artística. / This dissertation aims to investigate the photographic work of Francisco Aszmann (1907 - 1987), who was an Hungarian-born Brazilian, in part responsible for photomontages rise to popularity in Brazil between the 1950s and 1960s. As soon as he arrived in this country, in 1948, Francisco Aszmann took up residence in Rio de Janeiro, where he worked at Sombra magazine and opened a commercial photography studio that would be successful within Rio de Janeiros elite. Aszmann acted not only as a photographer, but also as a teacher, a photoclubs member, author of books , collaborator of illustrated magazines with wide circulation and editor of the specialized journal Fotoarte. For Aszmann, photography only achieved art status through photomontage. The main objectives of this research are to contribute with the revision of his work, for the identification of his artistic references and to contextualize his work beginning at the concept of kitsch in art. Despite his numerous activities in the field of photography, Francisco Aszmanns work is practically unknown at the present day. Um romance em cada foto (roughly translated One story in each photo) was the title of a section published by him in the monthly magazine A Cigarra, between 1950 and 1955. The relation established between texts and photographies in this section will help us to comprehend Aszmanns conception of artistic photography.

En relation avec la pratique artistique de l'auteur, cette recherche se développe autour de la questiondes comportements du spectateur de l'art contemporain dans l'espace de l'œuvre, en France.L'art intègre depuis les années 1960 le spectateur, appelant sa participation ou le tenant volontairement à distance. Les oeuvres ne nécessitent plus une attitude contemplative, espèrent le visiteur actif voire acteur du déroulement de la création. Mais l'observation de ses comportements révèle également un rapport inédit à l'espace de l'art : certains publics y voient une continuité de la rue, et leur réception s'en ressent. L'étude de cette nouvelle figure du spectateur mène à interroger les outils que lui proposent les structures, afin que sa rencontre avec l'œuvre ne soit pas vaine : la médiation est développée, accompagnement nécessaire mais potentiel obstacle à une interprétation personnelle. Elle est aussi une vitrine de la démocratisation culturelle ; comme d'autres missions des lieux d'art, elle a pour fonction d'attirer et de fidéliser des publics peu sensibles à l'art actuel. Les espaces de consommation, de repos peuvent les inciter à dépasser le seuil des lieux d'exposition, qui doivent s'adapter aux diverses attentes - souvent contradictoires - des artistes et du public, et aux exigences politiques.L'auteur donne forme plastique à ces préoccupations dans une installation traduisant, par une pratique du bricolage qui lui est propre, l'enfouissement de l'œuvre sous les discours de médiation et les diverses préoccupations concernant l'accueil des spectateurs. Que devient l'œuvre lorsque le contexte de l'art occupe plus de place dans les discours que l'art lui-même ?

<p>This paper examines Hannah Höchs photomontage <em>Schnitt mit dem Küchenmesser Dada durch die letzte weimaren bierbauchkulturepoche Deutschlands</em>. The paper has as its aims to understand and analyze the predominated allegorical interpretation of <em>Schnitt</em> and to develop a logic how meaning is produced when a viewer look at <em>Schnitts</em> surface. The paper finds that the predominated interpretation has been arbitrarily created out of a specific spectator that acts in a specific context and conclude instead that the predominated interpretation should be understood as a potential interpretation by a potential viewer. The paper continues to create an understanding of <em>Schnitt</em> as a flatbed picture to establish that as a postulate and to use it in the later semiotic dissection of <em>Schnitts</em> surface. The paper then semiotically explains how a viewers meaning is produced by creating a chain with <em>Schnitts</em> photographical fragments and connecting these with syntagmatic relations.</p>
