[ | September 26, 2011 | 2 Comments | 749 views]

I invite you clicked this link, take a deep breath and travel to the future (past tense). Much interesting thing was said during that table and the task of summarizing the issue gets to be a little sore. Who was there can testify to a conversation very rich and full of ideas.

Lasting for almost 3 hours and Culture House Paraty crowded and Maurice Eder Chiodetto Lissovsky opened the round of talks on Saturday.

Both have worked the Future theme in his research and brought an overview of what has been, is being and imagine that will be the way of photography. Livia Aquino, mediator, started the table with a text of Mauritius. "Every photograph is pregnant with dreams. Every photographer dreams awake. "

Ruffled? Well get ready, the conversation gets even better.

Eder Chiodetto brought Paraty a part of the gigantic exhibition Generation 00. Already Mauritius Lissovsky the order, brought a continuation of the discussion that began in 2010, during the 2nd Forum of Latin American Photography .

The intention in assembling and curating the exhibition Generation 00 was to map the lines of force that emerged in the decade and was divided into two modules: Limits, Documentary metalanguages ​​and Imaginary. Eder pointed work Gisella Motta and Leandro Lima, Gallery Red, as one of the incentives for the installation of the exhibition. With portraits of two people, the artists created a virtual child, fusing the two images. "The photograph that was created to record the existing, now serves to create characters. A job to think the photograph of the future, "said Eder.

The use of the Internet, digital distribution of images, the popularization of digital cameras and programs like Photoshop, changed the public photography. In the case of photojournalism, if the player has the possibility suspicious image always be handled.

But the photographers of the 21st century also changed. Most of the papers presented at Generation 00 were produced for final course work. It is a generation that is going to study photography in practice and in theory.

Guilherme Maranhao, Sofia Borges, Rafael Assef, Rodrigo Braga, Raquel Brust (which is also in Paraty with its Gigantografias) were also present at the exhibition.

Mauricio began his speech Lissovsky revisiting concepts of its 10 proposals presented in 2010. In the past, the wait was the essence of photography. The photographic device, then, is both a machine and a machine to wait to file. And the question of the file is the issue of the future. You need to file, because if we want to know what something means, we will only know tomorrow.

Waiting is storing dreams.

In an exercise of thinking about the future image, Mauricio went through Jacques Rancière and his work Destiny Image and his debate with WJT Mitchell. One says that nothing is real and that the images are gone. The other argues that the images are the work of an artist, and are nomads who camp in different medias.

But it is the Baudelaire poem, The One Passante, who beautifully Mauricio concludes this exercise over the image. "Every picture is the future of the past tense."
