| Abstract | |
Art rediscovers itself, today, as a privileged substract of human cultures and as witness of their diverse expressions and representations. In parallel, Anthropology (especially Visual Anthropology) finds that images do not exist without our imaginary and, in its turn, societies could not emerge without the arts. It is through these horizons that, among other authors such as Hans Belting, Alfred Gell and, mainly, Georges Didi-Huberman (privileged exegete of the father of modern iconology, Aby Warburg); we intend to participate in a wider questioning about the role of the Arts (and images) in a reconfiguration of the anthropological speech. It is from this interactive and experience based starting point that we investigate the work of Alex Flemming. With him, we seek to rethink the political dimensions of images and learn to recognize what they say about our human condition in the contemporary world (AU) | |
