Esta
Tese
procurou
analisar
a
imagem
do
corpo
brasileiro
na
fotografia
contemporânea
portuguesa,
buscando
compreender
quais
os
aspectos
da
identidade
brasileira,
construídos
a
partir
do
período
colonial,
são
realçados
ou
superados
na
produção
da
imagem
pelo
fotógrafo
português.
A
análise
empreendida
objetivou:
selecionar
uma
produção
fotográfica
portuguesa
que
teve
como
intuito
a
produção
de
imagens
do
corpo
brasileiro
no
próprio
território
brasileiro;
investigar
o
surgimento
ou
construção
de
estereótipos
relacionados
ao
brasileiro
ao
longo
do
tempo;
reunir
referências
teóricas
que
ofereçam
suporte
também
a
um
olhar
pós-‐colonial
e
feminista;
para,
finalmente,
avaliar
se
as
antigas
representações
do
corpo
no
período
colonial
possuem
confluência
na
produção
contemporânea
da
imagem
fotográfica,
a
partir
de
um
exame
profundo
de
imagens
e
entrevistas
realizadas
com
os
próprios
fotógrafos
selecionados.
A
pesquisa
apresenta
uma
investigação
teórica
e
empírica,
pensada
a
partir
de
um
entrecruzamento
entre
a
teoria,
documentos,
entrevistas
e
imagens
fotográficas.
No
primeiro
capítulo
apresenta-‐se
uma
perspectiva
teórica
e
metodológica
com
a
discussão
sobre
cultura,
representação,
subjetividade,
colonialismo
na
produção
de
diferença
e
da
metodologia
adotada.
No
segundo
capítulo
foi
oferecida
uma
reflexão
sobre
as
formas
de
representação
do
rosto
e
do
corpo
na
fotografia,
desde
uma
abordagem
mais
filosófica
a
uma
abordagem
mais
científica.
O
terceiro
capítulo
traz
algumas
figuras
e
imagens
que
representam
a
ideologia
colonial,
apresentando
cartas
e
tratados
do
século
XVI,
fotografias
de
paisagem,
retratos
no
formato
carte
de
visite,
o
discurso
da
imprensa
no
século
XX,
além
da
imagem
da
mulher
brasileira,
maioria
em
número
no
que
se
refere
à
imigração,
como
também
protagonista
na
representação
do
Brasil
na
imprensa
e
na
publicidade
que
a
mostra
como
portadora
de
uma
sexualidade
latente
e
enfeitiçadora.
O
quarto
capítulo
promove
uma
leitura
de
autores
clássicos
e
contemporâneos,
portugueses
e
brasileiros,
para
compreender
como
a
imagem
do
povo
brasileiro
foi
constituída
e
como
alguns
aspectos
identitários
foram
certamente
atribuídos
à
“raça”.
No
quinto
e
último
capítulo
foram
analisados
os
trabalhos
e
entrevistas
dos
sete
fotógrafos
portugueses
contemporâneos:
Miguel
Valle
de
Figueiredo,
André
Cepeda,
Valter
Vinagre,
Duarte
Belo,
Jordi
Burch,
Martim
Ramos
e
Catarina
Botelho.
Com
base nesses
trabalhos,
foram
abordados
aspectos
da
cultura,
identidade,
representação
e
subjetividade
para
compreender
como
a
fotografia
pode
também
ser
vista
como
ferramenta
para
superar
imagens
pré-‐concebidas
a
partir
de
uma
sensibilidade
que
é
garantida
com
o
entendimento
da
fotografia
como
fruto
de
um
encontro
entre
um
sujeito
ético
e
um
sujeito
que
evoca
uma
ética.

This thesis sought to analyze the image of the “Brazilian body” in contemporary Portuguese photography in the attempt to understand which aspects of Brazilian identity, built since the colonial period, are highlighted or surpassed in the production of the image by the Portuguese photographer. The objective of the analysis was: to select a Portuguese photographic production of which the purpose was to produce images of the Brazilian body in the Brazilian territory; to investigate the emergence or construction of stereotypes related to Brazilians over time; to gather theoretical references that also support a postcolonial and feminist perspective; finally, to evaluate if the old representations of the body in the colonial period have similarities with the contemporary production of the photographic image, through a deep examination of images and interviews with the selected photographers themselves. The research presents a theoretical and empirical investigation, conceived from crossing theory, documents, interviews and photographic images. The first chapter posts a theoretical and methodological perspective with the discussion about culture, representation, subjectivity, colonialism in the production of difference and the methodology adopted. The second chapter offered a reflection on the forms of representation of face and body in photography, from a more philosophical approach to a more scientific approach. The third chapter presents some figures and images that represent the colonial ideology, presenting 16th century letters and treatises, landscape photographs, portraits in carte de visite format, 20th century press discourse, and the image of Brazilian women, who are the majority with regard to immigration, as well as protagonists in the representation of Brazil in the press and in the publicity that shows them as bearers of a latent and bewitching sexuality. The fourth chapter promotes a reading of classic and contemporary authors, both Portuguese and Brazilians, to understand how the image of the Brazilian people was constituted and how some aspects of identity were certainly attributed to "race". The fifth and last chapter analyzed the works and interviews of the seven contemporary Portuguese photographers: Miguel Valle de Figueiredo, André Cepeda, Valter Vinagre, Duarte Belo, Jordi Burch, Martim Ramos and Catarina Botelho. Based on these works, this thesis approaches aspects of culture, identity, representation and subjectivity to understand how photography can also be seen as a tool to overcome preconceived images based on a subjectivity that is assured by the understanding of photography as the result of an encounter between an ethical subject and a subject that evokes ethics.
