Abstract

CRIPPA, Giulia  and  LASTORIA, Andréa Coelho. Um passeio pelas imagens: a Ribeirão Preto de Tony Miyasaka. ETD [online]. 2010, vol.11, n.02, pp.54-74. ISSN 1676-2592.

Proposal of this paper is to reflect on conceptual plurality involved by images (since Antiquity until our times), their conception as a material and immaterial representation and, last but not least, photography as a possibility of a made up image. The paper reflects on pictures as images that can tell stories and represent places, so that they can translate the past into our present. The paper states that pictures show their makers’ perceptions. As a case study, we present the context that originated Tony Miyasaka photographic production, in order to understand the history of the city of Ribeirão Preto, in São Paulo State, through pictures representing its space and places.

Keywords : Image; Photography; Space; Tony Miyasaka; Ribeirão Preto.
