Pilařová, A.: Skupinový portrét v digitální době a jeho zpracování ve výtvarné výchově. [Závěrečná diplomová práce] Praha 2018 - Univerzita Karlova, Pedagogická fakulta, katedra výtvarné výchovy, 87 s The thesis focuses on photography, different kinds of photographic manipulations and viewer's ability to determine how much was the picture edited. On the theoretical and practical level, it deals with implementation of social networks into the fine art classes and its benefits for pupils. The didactic tasks concentrate on a photographic group work. Pupils apply their experiences and they consciously use artworks of other artists as a base for their own creations. The author uses photographic manipulations as a device to create a new image. These images are based on the didactic part; the social network serves as a place where the author meets viewers. KEYWORDS manipulation of photographs, social networks, usage of social networks in class, group portrait, photographing in art class

A partir de pesquisa bibliográfica e exploratória, realizamos etnografia, acompanhando o trabalho de editores, fotógrafos e repórteres pelo período de cinco dias, em atividades internas e externas. No relato de observações e conversas com os profissionais da redação, junto às fotografias que registram o trabalho da equipe, são analisados retratos que tiveram acompanhamento na produção e edição. A partir destas informações, elaboramos categorias nas quais dispomos nossas apropriações e tensionamentos: o ambiente, o sujeito, a pauta, a história, os problemas sociais, e o espaço gráfico e a busca pela visibilidade. Os apontamentos permitiram identificar o enquadramento jornalístico no retrato, pensando desta forma o quadro fotográfico como espaço de produção de sentidos. Identificamos que as fontes populares estão frequentemente relacionadas a pautas que tratam de problemas sociais e as imagens evidenciam os dramas vividos, forma que o jornal encontra para sensibilizar a sociedade e buscar soluções. O jornal mantém um relacionamento muito próximo com suas fontes e preocupa-se em construir uma imagem positiva desses sujeitos, valorizando, desta forma, os gestos espontâneos. Mostrar o ambiente onde estão essas fontes também é uma meta constante, apesar de os espaços do projeto gráfico destinados à fotografia, muitas vezes, serem reduzidos. Nas matérias de serviços, esses sujeitos ainda são transformados em instrumentos de instrução aos leitores, servido de exemplo para as questões explicativas, especialmente nas imagens, já que o jornalismo popular aposta nos recursos visuais para se comunicar com seu público. / This research aims to investigate how portraits of popular sources on the Diario Gaucho are made, a popular newspaper launched in 2000 by RBS Group in Rio Grande do Sul. From bibliographic and exploratory research we conducted ethnography, watching the work of editors, photographers and reporters for five days in indoor and outdoor activities. In the account ofobservations and conversations with professionals in the newsroom, along with photographs that record the team's work, pictures that were followed in the productionand editing are analyzed. From this information, we developed categories in which we have our appropriations and tensions allocated: the environment, the subject, the agenda, history, social problems, graphic space and the quest for visibility. The notes allowed the identification of the journalistic framing in the picture, thinking this way the photographic picture as a space for production of senses. We found that the popular sources are often related to agendas that deal withsocial problems and the images show the lived dramas, a way that the paper finds to touch society and seek solutions. The newspaper maintains a very close relationship with its sources and worries about building a positive image of those subjects, enhancing thus the spontaneous gestures. Showing the environment where these sources are located is also a constant target, although the spaces of graphic design destinated for photography are often reduced. In articles of service, those subjects are still transformed into instruments of instrction to readers, serving as an example to explaining matters, especially in the images, sincethe popular journalism believes in visual resources to communicate with its audience.

Our corpus consists of books with letters by Ana Cristina Cesar, Clarice Lispector and Frida Kahlo and five Frida Kahlo s self-portraits. Our theoretical framework is grounded on the works of Flusser in the field of communication. The definition and structure of letters is based on the thoughts of Anonymous from Bologna, Caio Junior Victor, Michel Foucault and Mark Moraes. The analysis of self-portraits relies on reflections of Katia Canton, J. Moulin and Ernst Rebel; on the process of creation as a network, semioticallybased (Peircean line) we resorted to Cecilia Salles s research. The methodology covered the identification of the elements of creation that were significantly repeated, thus lending themselves to some generalizations about their creative processes. From this perspective the thesis discusses the concept of letter and the structure of the letters analyzed as well as contemplates this communicative medium along the studies of the processes of creation as a network, focusing on the marks left by authors in the constitution of the subjects of creation. Finally, we propose a possible analogy between the authors way of writing letters and the process of creating Frida Kahlo s self-portraits. The results are: discussion of the concept of letter, analysis of the structure of letters, reflection both on the communicative act in the creation process and on the constitution of creator subjects and finally on the analogical relationship between the writing of letters and the process of creating self-portraits / A tese questiona os aspectos comunicativos e a constituição do sujeito ao longo dos processos de criação de Ana Cristina Cesar, Clarice Lispector e Frida Kahlo. O corpus analisado é composto por livros de cartas das autoras Ana Cristina Cesar, Clarice Lispector e Frida Kahlo e por cinco autorretratos de Frida Kahlo. Utiliza-se o referencial teórico da área da comunicação, desenvolvido por Vilém Flusser. Sobre a definição e a estruturação da carta, baseia-se no pensamento de Anônimo de Bolonha, Caio Junior Victor, Michel Foucault e Marcos Moraes. Acerca do autorretrato o estudo se apoia nas reflexões de Kátia Canton, J. Moulin e Ernst Rebel; a respeito do processo de criação como rede, de base semiótica (linha peirceana) recorremos à pesquisa de Cecilia Salles. A metodologia partiu da identificação dos elementos de criação que se repetiam de forma significativa e ofereciam generalizações sobre seus processos de criação. A partir dessa perspectiva a tese discute o conceito de carta e sua estrutura; reflete sobre esse meio comunicativo no âmbito dos estudos dos processos de criação como rede e as marcas das autoras no processo de constituição de sujeitos da criação. Por fim, é proposta uma possível analogia entre a escritura das cartas e o processo de criação dos autorretratos de Frida Kahlo. Os resultados nos levam a discutir a respeito do conceito e da estrutura das cartas, refletir sobre o ato comunicativo no processo de criação, a constituição de sujeitos criadores e a relação analógica entre a escritura de cartas e o de autorretratos

Esta dissertação objetiva analisar a representação do negro no Brasil no século XIX a partir de retratos produzidos pelos estúdios fotográficos de Alberto Henschel (1827-1882), entre 1866 e 1882. Alemão radicado no Brasil, em 1866, este empresário bem sucedido do campo da fotografia chegou a ser agraciado com o título de fotógrafo da Casa Imperial, tendo produzido um grande número de retratos de negros no formato carte-de-visite. A investigação parte da hipótese de que essas imagens materializam certos estereótipos, característicos da representação da alteridade, além de fazerem uso das convenções pictóricas contemporâneas e, até mesmo, anteriores à própria invenção da fotografia. Para essa análise foram utilizados os conceitos de identidade e diferença, bem como de representação e autorrepresentação. Por intermédio do cotejamento das fotos de brancos com as fotos de negros, produzidas por Henschel, foi possível comprovar que a produção das últimas visava a atender a uma demanda por imagens tipificadoras, adequadas ao colecionismo de caráter etno-antropológico. Tratava-se de uma prática de viés imperialista que teve lugar na Europa. Além da análise das fotografias, propriamente ditas, esta dissertação problematiza a natureza dos arquivos que guardam a produção fotográfica de Alberto Henschel, os critérios que nortearam sua formação e aquilo que, de fato, eles nos permitem conhecer a respeito do fotógrafo, sua obra e sua época. / This dissertation aims to analyse the representation of black people in Brazil during the XXth century based on portraits produced by Alberto Henschel (1827-1882)s photographic studios between 1866 and 1882. This successful German photography businessman settled in Brazil since 1866 was awarded the title of Photographer of the Royal House having produced a large number of portraits of black people in carte-de-visite format. This study starts from the assumption that these images embody certain stereotypes characteristic of the representation of otherness, as well as making use of pictorial conventions both contemporary and previous to the invention of photography itself. The concepts of identity and difference were used for this analysis, as well as those of representation and selfrepresentation. Through mutual comparison of photographs of white and black people produced by Henschel, it could be verified that the production of the latter sought to meet a demand for typifying images adequate for ethno-anthropological collecting (collectionism). This was a practice with a imperial bias which took place Europe. Besides analyses of photographs, this dissertation also raises a discussion on the nature of the files storing Alberto Henschels photographic production, the criteria which guided their formation, and what they actually allow us to know about the photographer, his work and his time.

Por meio da análise dos autorretratos realizados por Geraldo de Barros ao longo de sua trajetória profissional, esta dissertação elencou os procedimentos criativos explorados pelo artista na produção de suas fotografias. Dentre os observados, destacam-se: a manipulação da luminosidade original das cenas, por meio do reenquadramento do negativo durante a ampliação das fotografias; a apropriação de estilemas da cultura imagética do cinema norteamericano, em especial, dos filmes noir. Verificou-se também que Barros produziu cópias fotográficas com o aspecto de imagens negativas, dentre outros chistes visuais, com o intuito de desafiar a capacidade perceptiva do público. Por fim, as técnicas de decupagem, montagem e justaposição de negativos e fotografias sobre placas de vidro; assim como a duplicação de contatos e negativos vintage para serem utilizados como matérias primas na produção das colagens da série \"Sobras\"; e a decisão de retirar a própria imagem de todas as fotografias que integram esse último trabalho, com exceção daquela denominada pelo artista como o seu derradeiro autorretrato, foram os procedimentos de destaque observados durante a investigação. A estratégia de eleger os autorretratos de Geraldo de Barros como ponto de partida para o estudo possibilitou constatar que tais obras podem ser utilizadas como chaves de interpretação das diferentes posturas que ele adotou, em diferentes momentos de sua trajetória, perante a arte e o seu papel como profissional. / By analyzing Geraldo de Barros\' self-portraits throughout his professional career, this dissertation listed the creative procedures explored by the artist while producing his photographs. Among the ones that were observed, we highlight: the appropriation of Hollywood\'s imagery culture, especially of so-called noir movies; as well as the use of the techniques of decoupage, assembly and juxtaposition of negatives and photographs on glass plates. In addition, we verified that Barros manipulated the original luminosity of the scenes, by reframing the negatives during the development of the photographs. We also demonstrated that Barros produced photographic copies that resembled a negative image, among other visual puns, in order to challenge the perceptive ability of the public. Along with the artist\'s decision to duplicate contacts and vintage negatives to be used as a base on the production of the collages for the series \"Sobras\". And, finally, the resolution to remove his own image of all the photographs that compose his later work, with the exception of the one that Barros calls his ultimate self-portrait, were the outstanding procedures observed during the investigation. The strategy of electing Geraldo de Barros\' self-portraits as a starting point for the study made it possible to verify that such works can be used as keys to interpret the different postures that he adopted at different moments of his trajectory regarding art and his role as a professional.

O fotógrafo alemão August Sander (1876-1964) foi autor de uma das mais apreciadas obras fotográficas do século passado, Homens do século XX (HHSX), um projeto de fotografia documental de grande envergadura, iniciado na década de 1920, composto basicamente por retratos, por sua vez organizados segundo o critério de classificação de tipos da sociedade elaborado pelo próprio fotógrafo. Alguns dos retratos são descritos neste trabalho pormenorizadamente a fim de encontrar nas suas propriedades visíveis indicações referentes aos esquemas de percepção que Sander empregava em sua visão de mundo. As análises dessas imagens são confrontadas com os critérios de classificação por ele adotados e articuladas a um manancial de informações relacionado ao ambiente fotográfico da época, ao contexto sócio-político da Alemanha e à biografia do fotógrafo. Este procedimento levou à hipótese central da pesquisa: mais do que representações de tipos sociais, como de fato acreditava Sander, HSXX é antes um conjunto de estereótipos no sentido de seus retratos serem realidades construídas que correspondem a um modo de percepção social. Enquanto à percepção do real, a maioria dos retratos corresponde a estereótipos pré-concebidos socialmente. O presente estudo parte do princípio de que Homens do século XX é a narração da interpretação de Sander sobre aquele período histórico da Alemanha. Deste ponto de vista, a análise empreendida não interpreta somente a obra, mas também interpreta a interpretação circunstanciada daquele que a concebeu. Não se trata, portanto, de um estudo sobre os fatos narrados, mas sim sobre a forma como Sander os narrou, sua percepção do mundo inscrita na interpretação que ele faz do real circunstanciada por diversos fatos sociais. / The German photographer August Sander (1876-1964) was the author of one of the most appreciated photographic work from last century, Man in the Twentieth Century, a vast documental photography project, started in the 1920s, basically composed by portraits, organized by the author according to societys kinds of occupations. Some of the portraits are described here in detail in order to find in its visible proprieties, indications related to the aspects of perception which Sander used in his view of the world. The analysis of those images are confronted with the classification criteria adopted by him and articulated with several pieces of information related to the photographic environment from that time, to the German social political context and to the photographers biography. This procedure took us to the researchs central hypothesis: more than representations of social types, as Sander believed, Man in the Twentieth Century is a whole of stereotypes in the sense that his portraits are constructed realities that correspond to a kind of social perception. As for the perception of the real, most of the portraits correspond to the stereotypes that are socially understood. The current study essentially states that Man in the Twentieth Century is the narration of Sanders interpretation about that German historic period. From this point of view, the analysis done not only interprets the art work, but also interprets the circumstanced interpretation from the one who idealized it. Therefore, it is not a study about the narrated facts, but about the way Sander narrated them, his perception of the world enrolled in the interpretation that he does about the real, circumstanced by several social facts.

Esta pesquisa propõe uma reflexão sobre a tecnologia colaborativa e a visualidade como os principais elementos para construção da identidade nas redes sociais, com ênfase na fotografia e no vídeo. A explosão, nos últimos 20 anos, dos processos de mediação tecnológica, já consolidados como parte da vida cotidiana, tem gerado uma forma distinta de construir identidades, fato que denominei como conceito de trabalho, Identidades Expandidas. Neste trabalho, descrevo como antecedentes, duas trajetórias separadas, mas interligadas, que dão conta da conformação destas identidades expendidas e configuram um campo emergente, para posteriormente elaborar uma análise de sua relação com as mídias e com a arte contemporânea utilizando diversos exemplos de produções recentes. De uma parte, está a trajetória da tecnologia em rede desde os primórdios até a Web 2.0 ou Web Social, mediação que proporcionou ferramentas importantes para arquitetar novos modelos da identidade individual, e que atualmente estão centrados na sobre-exposição do Eu na imagem interconectada. De outra, está a trajetória das tecnologias da visão usadas quase exclusivamente na arte como exercício de análise para a autoexploração, o que deu como expressão máxima o autorretrato, que recentemente se viu confrontado por o excesso de autoimagens na rede. No ponto em que confluem estas duas trajetórias se instala o recém-chamado Selfie, que é a prática paradigmática da imagem em rede. O selfie é usado como foco de estudo porque é um exemplo destacado de como a tecnologia, visualidade e identidade tem influenciado as mídias e novas práticas artísticas. O objetivo do trabalho que aqui apresento é refletir sobre a relação entre tecnologias sociais, processos de subjetivação, imagens digitais e práticas artistas, num diálogo sobre a transformação radical da visualidade contemporânea. / This research proposes a reflection about collaborative technology and the visuality as the main elements for identity construction on social networks, focusing on photography and video. The explosion, on the last 20 years, of technologically mediated processes that are becoming part of the everyday life, has shaped a new form of identity construction that I have called Expanded Identities. In this work I describe two different but interconnected trajectories that set the base for an understanding of these expanded identities. With these trajectories as a base the analysis, describes several cases in media and art works that engage with these identities and outline an emergent field. The first trajectory frames Internet history focusing on the technologies that make possible the so-called Web 2.0, a social web. These set of technologies create affordances that shape new models of identity that are centered on the over exhibition of networked images. The second trajectory accounts for the technologies of vision that had been traditionally used only by artists as a self-exploration analysis, being the self-portrait as the main genre. This relationship is challenged right now because of the excess of self-images online known as Selfies. These trajectories converge precisely in the Selfie as the paradigmatic practice of the networked image. The selfie is used asfocus ofstudy because it is a good example of how technologies, visuality and identities are influencing the media and new artistic practices. The main objective of this research is to reflect upon the relationship between technologies,subjectivity processes, digital images and artistic practices that form a dialogue on the radical transformations of contemporary visuality.

The quality of work performance and cooperation within the team is determined by organizational culture and the values of organization and individuals. Having different values can often lead to conflicts and may also cause decrease in team effectiveness and demotivation. The target of the thesis is to identify the influence of individual values on the team cooperation. To define the types of value orientation of particular team members I shall use the theories of Shalom Schwarz and strengths inventory methods of Ellias H. Porter. A quantitative research realized on a target group of seventy managers of international companies is a part of this thesis. The research is targeting to verify the impact of individual value preferences on employee behavior within team work for the chosen sample of managers. To reach the empirical research a combination of methods of questionnaires and standardized interviews shall be used. Key words: values, organizational behaviour, cooperation, Schwartz, Porter, portrait value survey, Motivational value system

The portfolio contains two of Becky Llewellyn’s music compositions: an orchestral tone poem and a chamber opera score and libretto created to explore the process of producing a major work of music theatre from conception to performance. In both works, Llewellyn’s research has concentrated on her interest in structure and form between ideas, music and visual art and their relationship to each other. Rothko’s Red The first composition in her submission is her orchestral tone poem, Rothko’s Red, a tribute to US artist Mark Rothko, whose painting techniques questioned traditional forms of narrative and structure. The topographical matrix of Rothko’s Red contains vertical aural space introduced in a ‘keyed up’ range suggesting ‘redness’, gradually deepening until the bass predominates, retaining a widened spaciality at the peak moment. Horizontally, the piece is a long crescendo of extended phrases, at first lightweight, then filling out with each repetition, moving to a full expression of orchestral magnitude, then gradually subsiding. The tone poem passes limited melodies and harmonies around to and within the orchestral families, as if in one colour. Llewellyn’s use of individual dynamics for orchestral players is an experiment in aural equivalence of Rothko techniques, using ‘heard’, not ‘seen’ tone colours. The Portrait: a musical tribute to Stella Bowen Llewellyn’s chamber opera is based on books, letters, diaries and family history research into the life of Adelaide-born writer and painter, Stella Bowen and three other writers. The opera’s libretto is structured as a series of songs reflecting Bowen’s paintings and life story. The chamber opera opens and closes in 1944, with Bowen as a WWII Australian war artist. The opera spans from 1917, when as a London art student, Bowen is introduced to editor/writer, Ford Madox Ford with whom she falls in love. The opera moves through to Paris and Ford’s subsequent love affair with writer Jean Rhys and his death in 1939. The Portrait is an exploration of how we know who we are and how, as artists, we choose to represent those insights. As the four main characters each wrote about themselves and each other, Llewellyn used their distinct content, style and aesthetic concerns to invent their musical and dramatic personae. The Portrait plays with ideas these four artists explored of extended metaphors, a shifting ambiguity in ‘artifice as a real story’, in an imagined dramatic musical work about real artists and writers; life as art and art as life. Among other themes in The Portrait; thanatos and eros, culture and morality, war and peace, fate and choice and opera as portraiture, is an underlying structural theme of time itself. Mythic time is explored as fairytale. Historical time ranges from 1920s chordal and dance motifs back to associations of medieval castles, where western-style Romantic love began. Personal, subjective experience of time is explored by most characters, as is the lack of artistic time given domestic commitments. Objective ‘time as limited’ is explored with Ford’s death and the impending death of the Australian bomber crew. Llewellyn focuses on the timebased art-form of music, while incorporating words, Bowen’s paintings and archival photographs in a chamber opera that explores the potential each art-form carries for revelation. / Thesis (M.Mus.) -- University of Adelaide, Elder Conservatorium of Music, 2007

This research project, Return of the Polynesian Phantom, investigates self-portraiture through the mediums of moving image, digital modeling, object making, and installation. It seeks to consider in these media an ambiguous threshold between lightness and darkness, the real and the fabricated. The proposition that it explores is that it is at such ambiguous thresholds that notions of identity are negotiated, and where the perception and interpretation of symbolic meaning renders identity phantom.
