A presente pesquisa compreende o estudo da representação da paisagem no
contexto das artes visuais, com foco na fotografia contemporânea, para observar sua
significação e potencialidade metafórica no que diz respeito à comunicação e expressão
a través da criação artística e subjetiva. Buscamos encontrar quais as características da
presença da paisagem em trabalhos fotográficos contemporâneos. O caminho para esta
análise, busca, num primeiro capítulo, definir o conceito de paisagem, observar sua
história e evolução, assim como, sua presença nas artes visuais, desde as origens de sua
representação. A seguir, propõe-se uma investigação do lugar da paisagem no universo
da fotografia contemporânea, observando seu contexto histórico e visual; assim como a
riqueza da utilização conceitual e física do registo fotográfico que, por sua natureza
semiótica, pode ultrapassar o registo documental, para criar imagens que incentivam à
reflexão. Para exemplificar esta análise de forma objetiva, foram escolhidos dois projetos
fotográficos do artista visual Abelardo Morell: o Camera Obscura (executado desde 1991)
e o Tent Camera (a partir dos anos 2000). Ambos os projetos partem do princípio ótico
criador da câmera fotográfica: a câmera escura, transformando habitações em câmeras
escuras gigantes, para registar, simultaneamente, a paisagem exterior fusionada no
espaço interior. Num segundo capítulo, concentraremos o olhar nestas obras para
descobrir como uma reinterpretação subjetiva da realidade revela o inconsciente do
artista, ao mesmo tempo que ativa o imaginário do espectador.
The present research comprises the study of landscape representation in the context of the visual arts, focusing on contemporary photography, to observe its meaning and metaphorical potentiality regarding communication and expression through artistic and subjective creation. We seek to find the characteristics of the presence of landscape in contemporary photographic works. In order to do this analysis, in the first chapter we define the concept of landscape, observe its history and evolution as well as its presence in the visual arts, from the origins of its representation. Next, we propose an investigation of the place of landscape in the universe of contemporary photography, observing its historical and visual context, as well as the richness of the conceptual and physical use of the photographic register that, by its semiotic nature, can surpass the documentary register to create images that encourage reflection. To exemplify this analysis objectively, we focused on two photographic projects by visual artist Abelardo Morell: Camera Obscura (performed since 1991) and Tent Camera (from the 2000s). Both projects begin from the photographic camera's creative optical principle: the camera obscura, transforming rooms into giant cameras obscuras, to simultaneously register the outer landscape merged into the inner space. In a second chapter, we will focus on these works to discover how a subjective reinterpretation of reality reveals the artist's unconscious while activating the viewer's imagination.
