Abstract

From the critique of medieval images uses as a source of a Traditional Art History, we will seek, on this work, to approach a possibility, singularity and it's issues to a practical Historical-social work through images. It requires analyzing a corpus of sculptures from the cloister of three Catalan monasteries from new concepts, aiming at a construction of theoretical and methodological tools coherent with local historical questions. Initially, we are interested in the notion of images "performance" to approach the active elements and the dynamics of the participants on the place where they're found and not just preconceived according to stylistic categories. In a second moment, we will start from the notion of "agency" to highlight images relations in each column's capital of the buildings, trying to perceive the connection between them. Finally, we will relate as previous issues following a "serial analysis" approach between images of monasteries, constituting comparative groups in order to try the structural scent of the images in that region at that moment.
