Peruch, Julie. "La fabrication de la photographie de film dans le cinéma français : dispositif et environnement visuel, technique et organisationnel." Electronic Thesis or Diss., Paris, EHESS, 2024. http://www.theses.fr/2024EHES0103.
Full textFrench cinema is a transnational institution whose promoters embrace liberal values and seek to promote them through visual content. What are the mechanisms by which the market value of feature-film images is updated and reinvested in the spaces where they are made ? How does the anticipated market value of photographs of French feature-length fiction films influence the production process ? With what paradigms do image professionals look at the photographs of the films they make ? Based on a field work lasting several months in photography production facilities for French feature-length fiction films, and through thirty interviews with various professionals in the sector, this thesis aims to show that in the context of the the production process, the anticipated value of the product is a paradigm of visual perception that organizes the visibility of the image and shapes the relationships which produce it. Image technicians are a category of professionals who act as an affinity group, who mobilize socio-technical systems inscribed in a market logic for image material, and who deploy a professional gaze, characterised by projection into the domain of market value, as welle as a gaze situated according to their position in production relations. The gaze of image professionals, embedded in production relationships, ensure the existence and intelligibility of photography by mobilizing its anticipated market value in the production process it self
Morales, Hernandez Mauricio. "Médiatisation technologique et voix du réel. : une anthropologie historique du regard — de la trace à l'écran." Thesis, Paris, EHESS, 2017. http://www.theses.fr/2017EHES0041.
Full textWe begin by observing the importance of the image in the anthropogenesis’ process because the fixed image reveals temporal mediation, namely, the creation of reported time, mediatizing our relation to the real and thus, transgressing our fields of the perceptual. On this basis, the image’s history appears as a development of various static eidetic models that are going to be in a negotiation and permanent relationship with dynamic eidetic models: language, gestures, equipment, music, dance, the habitat; models that, in return, are mediations enabling us to invest the space and divide it up. The intermingling of the dynamic and static models would constitute the character defining man as a political animal, in the myriad and diversity of the elements that are components for each culture. That is how we are able to detect an ontological difference at the time when the photographic trace appears, a trace not resulting from a formal, symbolic idealization but from an idealization of distance, from which the screen materializes by articulating the eye from a new operative scale. The image’s essential contribution would thus have entered a new phase that would have transformed man into a media animal after almost two centuries. That is where the history of the new trace becomes the core of all political issues in its most consistent manifestation, under the surge of digital technology, that of cinematographic expression.In doing so, we have addressed and favoured one of cinema’s histories at a time when there was a development of specific issues in relation to the real, notably using the work of a Mexican filmmaker, Téo Hernández, mainly done in Europe between 1968 and 1992 as an example. Its powerful phenomenological dimensions — the importance of the body while filming — and also the deep reflexion on the medium and its relation to the real, have provided us with a keystone that enables us to understand the major changes in media that happened during the 1980s and determined the political outlook of the world today

Full textStatus and stakes of the photographic picture in narrative films are to be studied from different points of view (monstrative, narrative, enonciative) according as one regards either the status and the role of the photographic object or the fonctions and significations bound to the photographic representation. The integrated photographic picture as multi-fonction diegetic object is currently used. Through its double fonction as both index and icon and according to its significance in films, it helps the narration, it provides a certain knoledge and has a more or less important veridictory role, it enhances fiction at some levels in dividing the space and time of the represented object ; in the narration, it is to express affects, ideas, symbols and themes. The photographic picture also enables the audience to think out cinema and photography according to indicated or suggested contexts, for it can trigger free associations that partly depend on its relation to the image. Provided that the photographic object as actant is more or less substantial in the narration, photographic representation creates other stakes relating to signification within filmic representation, in works where cinema is designed as experimenting new expressive forms, new narrative forms. What is at stake in the integrated photographic picture as autonomous representation is not only set in terms of contrasts, contrarieties, blocking, stopping, interruption, performativity but also in terms syncretic phenomena. Single or multiple integration of the photographic picture can carry out the synthesis wich is neither quite homogeneous nor quite heterogeneous between photography and film. Thus, it creates an intermediate representation, and interspace representation

Li, Bing. "Dispositifs et pratiques du montage chez Raymond Depardon." Paris, EHESS, 2015. http://www.theses.fr/2015EHES0040.
Full textThis dissertation studies the practices of montage in the photographic and filmic work of Raymond Depardon. In choosing this artist, we are recognizing not only him as one of the most important actors in the history of contemporary visuals arts, but also the capacity of his work as establishing pertinent associations between images, between images and texts (in his photography books), and between images and sound (in his films). Two introductory chapters try to present Depardon's personality and personal history (from his first experiences as a reporter to his condition as artist), and then general considerations on the subject of montage. The next chapter is dedicated to the analysis of the device of montage implemented in three of Depardon's photography books : Notes (1978), Correspondence new-yorkaise (1981) and Errance (2000). Here, we attempt to understand what is in play between images and texts, between "fields" and "counterfields", etc. We assemble a history of the "photoreport" and of its evolution towards the "journal". We also address Depardon's journeys across the world. Another chapter follows the "cinematographic paths" in Depardon, through three examples : Les Annees declic (1984), Montage (1994), and Delits flagrants (1994). It is here that the problematic elements of photography are developed in the sense of an analysis that is formal but also institutional. Depardon appears, throughout our study, as the incarnation of the figure of "the author as producer", following Walter Benjamin's ideas. Three annexes transcribe interviews carried out by three film editors that worked with Raymond Depardon

Full textThis thesis deals with the concept of the American Indian. To begin with, we deconstruct the idea of the American Indian and consider our understanding of the various elements and how they contribute to the overall meaning. It is the result of collating several figurative representations and it allows us to consider the contribution of different sources, for example mythology and ideology. The first chapter introduces the conceptual notion of the figure whilst also demonstrating other examples than the Indian. The second section considers how individual authors have influenced their portrayals of the American Indian and how these are interlinked. The pictorial representations by illustrators are an invaluable contributory source. The differences that exist between French and American interpretations are also considered in this chapter. The third part is devoted, in particular, to the construction of the Indian figure. The relationship between the figure itself and the assembled evidence allows us to explore the mechanism behind the construction "the Indian". A focus of the study is the “Western” film and how social and historical considerations have impacted on the American Indian as a figure. The mechanism of this is studied chronologically from the early twentieth century to the modern day. The last section demonstrates how a negative image of the American Indian has resulted in a distorted and inaccurate perception of this minority group. Moreover, it considers how this has had a detrimental impact on the integration of the Native American today into society as a whole

The thesis endeavours to demonstrate how the nocturne reasserts the darkness values to turn them into colors, and how it illuminates, with a subtlety absent in diurnal vision, the more complex aspects of society as well as the human mind.The confrontation between picture and film sequences analysis, with a perspective articulating aesthetic, philosophy and art history, leads to three main concepts: Distortion, Sublimation and Transfiguration. Thereby it establishes the nocturne as an image’s aesthetic category in cinema and photography.The main corpus in cinema and photography, organised by externals criteria (nocturne, post-1960-1970 years color) and internals criteria (similar operating processes aesthetic), is established with the movie extracts of Stanley Kubrick (1928-1999), David Lynch (1946), Brian de Palma (1940), Francis Ford Coppola (1939) as well as the photographic series of Gregory Crewdson (1962), Bill Henson (1955), Rut Blees Luxemburg (1967) and Daniel Boudinet (1945-1990).The second is based on the photographic series of Darren Almond (1971), Jean-Christian Bourcart (1960), Nicolas Dhervillers (1981), Laurent Hopp (1974) and Chrystel Lebas (1966), as well as Antoine Barraud’s (1973) movie extracts.

Full textThis work in art and culture sociology consists in apprehending a specific phenomenon, the setting up of interpretations and then conventions about an artist's production : Jean-Luc Godard’s one. This work is made of three parts, two of which proved to give a dimension to cinema as a subject. First we defined an approach in art and culture sociology to this subject and we justified the relevance of researching on the works in question. Then we observed traces of the past - films, reviews and even theories - and we attempted to put them in their historical context as far as possible. Finally we organized our work, that is to say we reconstructed it from a relational viewpoint focusing on two notions : history and picture, the film-maker and his work. Relating the dynamic links that are set up between Jean-Luc Godard and society, we tried to reconstruct artisics phenomenons by means of integrating historical facts in a systemic way on the one hand and on the other hand doing an ethnography of artistic activity, that is to say the way the artist defines himself trough his work and his cinema. The relational approach suggested by Marcel Mauss's methodological concept of global social phenomenon allowed us to put in prospect a study of sociability structures, paths and sometimes to bring generation effects to light. Thus we analized the new modalities of social matters held in films such as « A bout de souffle », « Pierrot le fou and la chinoise », considering the film-maker's development between 1959 and 1967 to outline the elements of the construction of a biography in which we could watch one godard's representation, a career strategy and an artistic logic

Full text“Terre Humaine” Publishers’ Series (1955-2015), which is supervised by a French explorer and geographer, Jean Malaurie, may be examined as a heuristic space of diffusion of ideas, objects and practices to explore, in the 2nd half of the twentieth century, the tightness of the literary field in contact with anthropology and photography. The diversity of the authors’ backgrounds, writing genres, spaces and periods of time, masks the underground unity of an editorial and self-claimed universal enterprise which aims at understanding the most diverse populations, both in time and space, to uncover the mysteries of the human existence. Networking testimonials on societies scattered around the globe discloses a parallel worldview. In connection with the Annales review and the 19th century realism and naturalism, early reflections on writing in social sciences end up spawning an ethnographic literature grounded in exploring ways of living and thinking among marginalized groups worldwide. Ethnography is not anymore only considered as a scientific method to collect data but more broadly as a textual, visual and audiovisual writing genre relating the tragic metamorphosis of a society in contact with a civilization

Full textThe thesis begins with a personal account of the early influences on the author, in which one finds the seeds of this filmed ethnographic study of a "tribe" of high energy physicists. The thesis documents the filmmaker anthropologist author's method of working from both a theoretical and practical point of view. The author makes an analogy between the role of the particle physicist in our society and that of the blacksmith in West Africa. One point of comparison is that each is the "keeper of knowledge" for his society. The physicist is keeper of a knowledge which is very difficult for the non-initiated, such as the author, to understand. As a curious outsider who is not scientifically inclined, the author feels that the best method with which to try to understand this complicated and difficult society is one of successive approximations. A significant section of the thesis is given to an explanation of this method of learning. From a more practical point of view, the author describes in detail the process of shooting and editing the film "invisible energy". The film which accompanies the written thesis. "Invisible energy documents the confusion inherent in scientific discovery. In the written thesis, the author underlines the fact that physicists, who are working at the very limits of our technological and scientific knowledge, are usually working in a situation of risk. There is no guarantee that a new technology will work as planned, or that an extremely expensive piee of equipment will lead to important new discoveries. In addition, the author describes, CERN, the European laboratory for particle physics, where the film takes place, and discusses some of the important issues facing cern. Today. It is worth noting that cern is a fascinating area for study not

Full textThe development of photography, a result of economic growth, has led to its appropriatio by individuals (trought the democratization of the portrait and amateur photography). Anthropologists also used photographs then films (for illustration as participant observers) before becoming interested in them as an object of study in their own right. This research proposes the analysis of family usesof photographs and video in France (1990-2000). Work carried out on recent developments in the family and that related to family uses of photography define its context. Besides the actual subject of the views taken, what do these uses represent in themselves, how are they related to the functioning of contemporary families ? To what extent do the use of photographs or video reveal, translate, participate in and/or organise ways of "being" part of a family ? Observation of the corpus, together with an analysis of the way 37 people use photographs/video, complemented by their commentaries, confirms the central position and selective nature of the "album", but also its role in the contruction and fragmentation of time. These two points are expression of autobiographical intention of the organiser. The analysis also underlines the importance of the other photographs which are not included in the album. The intermingling of family rites and photographic/video rituals on the occasion of formal marriage celebrations or unofficial ones, or on the arrival of a child (by birth or adoption) proves that photography and video reflect and are a part of changes in family arrangements. Divorce, separation, re-formed families, all these have had an effect on their use. The way they are used is revealing of current attitudes in the face of death (the corpse as "taboo" and also of how the family's photographic inheritance is managed and transmitted. It is thus, that photographs and video, by provoking speech and expressing affects, provide an insight into their link with individual and family memories

Full textThis work started with two crucial insights from Georges Bataille’s œuvre. On the one hand, Bataille formulated a law on the constitution of community in the Collège de Sociologie: “Human beings are only linked together by wrenches or wounds”. On the second hand, he elaborated the idea that works of art are, since Lascaux, the traces of an archaeology of men’s community life, the code of a “non-savoir” about the sacred sphere which ties men together thanks to some borderline figures (the corpse, the tears, the orgy, the sacrifice). These two ideas allow me to define figurative anthropology as the discipline that seeks a figural thought of community in images, and the sharing of pain as one of its privileged objects. Contemporary thoughts of community (Jean-Luc Nancy, Giorgio Agamben, Roberto Esposito) allow me to state this hypothesis: contemporary cinema is not pertaining to the political construction of a people but to the figuration of communities which find in this very sharing their sole purpose. Only a figural work can contravene to the loneliness of a suffering body and break its closed isolation into include it in a pathetic group that synchronises gestures and assembles fleshes. The international corpus of films that I put together about the survival of figures of communion (Joao Pedro Rodrigues, Pedro Costa, Béla Tarr, Steve McQueen, Bruno Dumont) or the choreographic figuration of care (Tsai Ming-liang, Apichatpong Weerasehtakul, Vincent Gallo, Gus Van Sant) comes under a figurative realism which has not to be studied from the point of view of the politics of aesthetics (Jacques Rancière), but of the impolitics of beauty: that is to say that art is the place where the capacity for suffering and sharing, without leading to a political construction, allows the hope of an imminent community

Full textFace plastic practice generates sensible images. This thesis proposes an exploration of figurative images based on anthropological approach. In a first category of images, face proceeds from vagaries of History. It could be alternately propaganda and destruction. Shoah symbolizes the face obliteration and reveals an image in the very back. Conversely, the face could rise from the melting pot of distortion, disfigurement and representation. The image envisages face like a trace: a gesture print issued from accumulation, interlace or series principle. In this case, image awakes from the gesture. However, a third set of images could also reveal a hesitant face. For example, in photography, this face plays on the thin frontier between representation and abstraction. Image waves between retreat and emergence, figurative appearance and disappearance. According to survival principle, this oscillation indicates the capability of figurative images to resurface time and space, beyond. They have a power : the power to remember

Full textCirca 1900, new kinds of photographs appear that use screens to give the illusion of depth or of animation. The first section of this dissertation discusses the invention and the theoretical sources of these new processes and their uses up until 1950 (for portraits, in particular). The analysis of this era reveals a fascination for the advance of photographic innovation towards the imitation of human perception of the natural world. The second section studies the commercialization of screen photography after 1950. Innovative physical forms were invented in order to allow new, more widespread uses of the processes (key chains, postcards, amateur photography, etc. ). Screens were used to create intriguing illusions, often simplified with respect to the past and not as naturalistic. The commercial forms of such imagery (physical presentation, uses, aesthetics) are analyzed to understand the meaning of screen photography for the public of different periods

Full textThis anthropologic examination of several families of stories of suffering in cinema history uses psychology and sociology in order to determine universal tendencies in representation, by overtaking generic or territorial considerations. In using the same conceptual tools for the study of several narrative forms often considered as mutually exclusive, this critical analysis manages to surpass the usual dichotomies, and to offer an original definition of suffering as a feeling of lack or absence of control. It is indeed only through the convergent study of fictitious (stories), real (testimonies) and scientific (studies) discourses about suffering, or more specifically through the examination of active representations, that suffering itself can be studied, as an aesthetic phenomenon, subjective by definition. By systematically assimilating itself to a feeling of absence of control, suffering reveals that it dims out as soon as an inverse feeling of control intervenes. This way, the social function of fictitious stories presents itself as an attempt to offer appeasement through the arousal of the feeling of control, when only a few of them also show a philosophical dimension consisting in carrying out this teaching

Full textIn Rwanda, from April to July 1994, photographers and cameramen from international news agencies had big difficulties to document the genocide of the Tutsi, blurred by the civil war between the Armed Forces of Rwanda and the Rwandan Patriotic Front, and by the exile of the Hutu civilians in the refugee camps of the neighboring countries. Reporters found many impediments on their road, to take, to send and to spread their images in the Western world : technical damages, military and political censoring, lack of interest from editors, etc. Soon after the event, some photojournalists and cameramen decided to break with the mass-media system. They began to deconstruct their images by artistic representation, more suited to incarnate the genocide and to help the viewer recover the primacy of his look. Concurrently, other artists undertook to elaborate the memory of the genocide, collecting faces and testimonies of survivors and perpetrators, filming or photographing the places of the killings that became memorials. Within 18 years, the amount of artistic representations of the Tutsi genocide is important. Placed in a visual history which paradigm is the destruction of the Jews, these works show the way of a historical, political and aesthetical reflection on the extermination of the Tutsi and its consequences in the Rwandan society after the genocide

Full textNot only do films record what exists: they sometimes create objects to be filmed. These « simulacra » can just as well be parodies of art works or time machines. How do we think about these peculiar objects, all-too-often kitsch filmic excressences, which serve to highlight fictional artifice? Moreover, how do we think about cinema, in both its specificities and its relation to Plastic Arts? Looking through the lens of French cinema in the 1960's, this thesis intends to reconsider these objects in the context of visual culture, to analyse them as artistic crossroads, and to debate the theoretical issues they raise, most particularly the ability of cinema to turn into fiction the power of other arts. At the meeting point between artistic theory and cinematographic fiction, the history of these hybrid objects allows one to understand that cinema can perform the role of an art historian, and that art history is itself a succession of fictions about the power assigned to objects. As such, these cinematographic simulacra provide visual arts historians with unexpected sources

Full textWithin the context of a sociology of knowledge, the thesis undertakes an anthropological reading of ideologies, idealised conceptions and social models contained within theoretical discourse and social representations of love, taken from stories. It aims to show how the structure of love and sexual identity is created using socio-emotional models. The thesis locates the mechanisms of exclusion of the third party within the ideals and practices of love. The "ideal-types" of emotional relationship are constructed by setting them within their historical context and by analysing their social cinematographic representations. The research is interested in demonstrating attempts to bypass that which is understood to be the norm of conjugality and in the sociological developments which have taken place, notably, in the sphere of emotional relationships. It is, more widely, the transversal problem of the distorted relationship within the couple, brought about by a third party which is explored by discussing the dialectic within the couple and within the group as the basis of social links. Its intention is to show that across sometimes marginalised relationships, paradigmatic questions on social links within those relationships are posed key expressions emotion, love, anthropology, cinema, erotism, film, ideology, idealised conception, sexuality, third party
Picarel, Gilles. "Photographie & extériorité : une épreuve de l'autre." Electronic Thesis or Diss., Paris 8, 2021. http://www.theses.fr/2021PA080003.
Full textThis mixed research-creation thesis questions the relationship of photography and exteriority as a trial of the other, from my own artistical practice and the work of contemporary artists. This subject invites us to deal with a complex relationship insofar as photography is in the wake of exteriority and is embarked in the pursuit of the impossible. Therefore, the questioning of the photography/externality couple is based on a trial. It does not go in search of a given, but focuses on experimentation, attempt, and testing. This is also the guiding problem of this thesis, the possibility of an exteriority at work in photography, that is, the possibility of a movement of the same towards the other. This reflection makes it possible to consider the gap between photography and its object not only as a necessary condition for the object’s phenomenality, but as a possibility of the emergence of the other. Since the exteriority is aporetic, in its consubstantiality to the photographic medium, any attempt to define it is illusory. However, to respond methodologically to this problem, this work implements an aesthetic based on a generalized poietic. The photographic works interviewed as well as my personal practice focus on the prism of the work being done and the relationship that the artist maintains with his creation during its development, rather than focusing on the result. Moreover, the problem of exteriority has led research and creation to work from the philosophical concepts of articulatory, dialogue and gap, which in my artistic practice are translated into a collaborative and redoing design

Full textSummary: the present study is concerned, in an anthropological perspective, with connecting actors and researchers to the halieutic management of a resource of which the economic and social visibility is rapidly growing.The observation and the analysis of the small-scale fishing such as it is practised by the Indians Tzutuj' iil on the lake Atitlán (Guatemala) constitutes a key activity in which the crossed configuration of the subjectivity and the collective appears, a privileged environment where relations nets are woven between the fishermen, between the fishermen and the lake, between the fishermen and the researcher.To appreciate what is taking place collectively; links were set up between cinematographic and anthropological fields. This research leads jointly a sensitive approach - the cinema - and a social and cultural approach to report links stamped with contingency and not unequivocal between the collective representations and the practices. Contrary to a shared anthropology where the name of a director predominates, this work creates a shareable anthropology within which the plural, this grammatical mode of the relativity, turns out to be convenient for a science of the diversity. So, from a halieutic stage where traditional movements are unfold, this study favours, thanks to new technologies, the social connections under an interactive angle. It is part of the structure of a participative research and promotes “an ethnography in network” where meshing are representative of the way the actors are connected with one another in a horizontal way

Full textDialogy was developed in the 1920s by the Russian literary theorist Mikhail Bakhtin. He developed the concept in order to study the works of Dostoyevsky, before extending it more generally to communication. In the artistic context, dialogy entails the representation of dialogues, favoring thick description and non-totalizing responses. In documentary photography, the author adopts a dialogic approach, recognizing the other as an autonomous subject. Dialogic works promote sustained interaction with the interlocutors in the field.This thesis explores the dialogic approach in documentary photography from an ethnographic, methodological and epistemological perspective. The first part focuses on my own fieldwork from 2012 to 2017 with a group of "zonard.e.s": the ZONE 54 project. The second part links the fundamental principles of dialogy, the ZONE 54 project, and other dialogic documentary works by such photographers as Allan Sekula, Susan Meiselas, Marc Pataut and Gilles Saussier

Full textOften looked upon as a « discipline of words », French anthropology saw the birth of a real photographic image culture within its ranks from the 1930’s onward. The present dissertation wants to contrast this fruitful moment in the relationships between anthropology and photography, and to consider the evolution of the place and the status of pictures until the 1960’s. In this end, its draws on discourses dealing with photography and on photographic institutional policies – at the muséed’Ethnographie du Trocadéro, the musée de l’Homme and the Institut Français d’Afrique Noire – and open up this in dialogue with an analysis of distribution medium and field practices.Thus, this work reveals that an ambitious visual project is developed in the 1930’s from theTrocadéro, which contributes to the creation of an anthropological audience. It heightens throughout the following decades, with the success of the musée de l’Homme’s photo library and the renewed craze for exoticism and exploration. However, the mutations of the institutional landscape together with the colonial tensions of the 1950’s put into question this predilection for pictures: the interestfor using photographs, for collecting and spreading them is no longer agreed upon unanimously

Full textThis thesis compares the performance of two groups that use photography to campaign for human rights. The first one, Imagens do Povo (Rio de Janeiro/Brazil), is a group of Brazilian photographers living in the slums that was born of a deisre to produce images of the populares [slum dwellers] no linked to violence in order to fight against the process of criminalization of poverty. The second one, Drik Picture Library (Dhaka/Bangladesh) is a group of Bangladeshi photographers based in a middle-class neighbourhood of Dhaka taht are concerned with the image that the "West" has about them related to poverty and religious fundamantalism. The way these photographers react through images to troublesome representations Others make about them is the theme of this discussion, which is part of the tradition of anthropological studies of identity, otherness and social representations. Through a cross-cultural comparison, I reflect on how the documenation of the everyday life and subjective feelings of deprivation, injustice and exclusion are used to build new forms of protest and action by people worldwide

Full textHow to grasp, at the turn of the 1970s and in films made by filmmakers who made no secret of their Marxist, Communist or revolutionary commitment (Pasolini, Arrabal, Fassbinder, Jancsó, Garrel, etc.), the recurrence of patterns and schemes borrowed from Christian iconography and liturgy?The article about « the disappearance of the fireflies », published by Pasolini in 1975, offers the allegorical and theoretical matrix permitting to apprehend the singular historical and political sequence which goes from the end of the 50s to the middle of the 70s. First, it designates the advent of a dangerous neo-capitalist power, destructive and totalizing, in the face of which Marxism and Christianity will be led to modify their tools of struggle and vision. The article, then, describes a real anthropological crisis which attains the destruction of entire cultural worlds, in the face of which it will be a question of giving back to rites and traditions their potential for revolt, which allows them to play as operators capable of mobilizing the energies lacking in the political struggles, such as memory or communion. As an elegy mourning the disappearance of beloved cultures, the article finally presents a real eschatological report on the end of the world, a theological problematic re-exposed, at the same time, by the nuclear threat, the industrial paroxysm of the domination of the technical reign.Thus, the Pasolinian fireflies draw the singular iconological regime from which these resistant films proceed, opposing the faint gleam of an archaic gesture, albeit religious, to the powerful rationalist spotlights of capitalist civilization. The patterns identified in these films therefore proceed from a historical-aesthetic paradigm which makes the surviving past the privileged tool of a political struggle, of which it is possible to trace the archeology, from the notions of Nachleben, Pathosformel and Inversion forged by the german art historian Aby Warburg to the “dialectical image” in Walter Benjamin; and of which it is possible to find traces at the time, in a wide variety of disciplines (the political theology of Johann Baptist Metz, who made Christian memoria passionis an anti-bourgeois category; or the ethnology of gesture elaborated by the anthropologist Ernesto De Martino, who was to open Marxism to its unthought: the essential restorative and socio-cultural dimension of rites and images of religious origin).At the confluence of these two great traditions of hope that are Christianity and Communism, the films analyzed in this study challenge the contemporary paradigm of secularization and inform us about the revival, in modern times, of the great anthropological problems which have never ceased to occupy human thought: the contestation of an established order, the end of a world or a civilization, but also the moral energies which allows them to survive

Full textIn the 30s, Prevert and his friends photographers contributed to found the emblematic artistic ideas of the period between the wars. Then the dialogue made between his writing and photography became very rich, even though it did not always lead to real collaborations. This can be seen through the significant place that photography took in Prevert's work, subtly poiting out thus how this technique was shaping his relations with the world, how it influenced the way he was catching reality. After the Liberation, Prevert took up the dialogue with photography again thanks to a new generation of photographers. From now on the relationship he kept us with them was different from the one he had had with the photographers 15 years earlier. Whereas with the latter, one could guess some mutual competition which had pervaded their respective works, after the war Prevert became a model to a whole generation of artists who chose to pursue the aesthetics started by their predecessors

Full textWhich relations can the saudade, major expression of the Portuguese literature of the XVIth century, maintain a priori with contemporary photography? If saudade, phenomenon described by the poet Almeida Garett as a « delicious pain of the heart », born of the puncture of « a cruel spine », wakes up the remembrance related to a beloved being or place – whose absence, lack or loss cause us as much sadness as joy –, remains not easily translatable, and often continues to be comparable with the melancholy. However saudade also appears as a singular thought operating a temporal and spatial synthesis coming from man’s experience of the world, a « virtual » collage governed like a true layout of images. How can this feeling consequently find in photography a place of representation? Which symptoms, which “marks” thus come to reveal us its possible forms of application? Which paradoxes can also emerge, as soon as we try to withdraw them since their dormancy, or to reveal présent by their own absence, all that was, one day, but which is not anymore, or perhaps, the peculiar hope of what has not occurred yet? It is with these main questions that this thesis will try to answer, by exploring a corpus made up mainly among a choice of French and Brazilian contemporary photographs, but does not omit nevertheless other visual sources, such as paintings, engravings, films, performances, or often ephemeral installations. It is also trying to understand how this concept finally comes to compose a photographic iconography of an image-saudade which reveals itself as rich as complex and paradoxal

Full textThis study contends that Virginia Woolf's writing draws its inspiration from Julia Margaret Cameron's Victorian photographs, the 1920s avant-garde photography and cinema, and Woolf's own Monk's House Albums, making her work at once photographic and cinematographic, or photo-cinematographic. Exploring the Woolfian text as a complex representation device, I examine the plasticity of its prose and narrative strategies to show how photography and cinema help to shape its aesthetic, but also ethical and political contents. This thesis first places Woolf's works in their modernist context and underlines the part played by the Hogarth Press, enabling Woolf to include images in her texts. I then shed light on the kinematic aspect of her work by analysing the photo-filmic exploration of the London scene and the montage of stream of consciousness. The third part probes into the anachronic rhythm of fluctuating time, emphasising the haunting aspects of memory through surviving images that condense their temporality in the instant (snapshot) or unroll it (streaming images) ; thus time achieves a personal and intimate, but also collective and historical dimension. Finally, I look at the Woolfian text as a subversive place of negotiation inhabited by eccentric characters with elusive identities and in which images help the author to make a "poethical" stand

Full textThe purpose of my thesis is to examine how photography recorded colonial expansion and helped forge a Kanak image and identity. Portrayed in the nineteenth century as a victory of European expansionism and civilisation over a primitive and backward Kanak society, the colonial era has now been challenged by postcolonial discourses denouncing these Eurocentric beliefs. Throughout my thesis I discuss the evolution of the techniques of photography from 19th century to our modern usage of the medium which has become utterly routinised and is deeply inserted into social practices. The extensive collection of New Caledonia photographs dating back to as early as 1840 confirms beyond doubt photography's role in forming our national experience, documenting what was to the emergence of New Caledonian identity. The photographs of the Kanak were stereoptic photographs and showed them with stiff expressions as in fear of their photographers. Photographs became fashionable through paper prints called cartes-de-visites which were mounted on cardboard and featured natives in various costumes and occupations. Individual photographs as well as the group collectively: colonial photography was a tool used in the efforts to control the indigenous population. In my thesis I analyse the evolution of the Kanak identity and the process of acculturation brought by the French through the settlements by various communities, the Church and the growing economy of the 19th century. The images are fundamental to the project, being a major source tfor research and critical evaluation. It is only over the last few decades that the importance of photography as a cultural manifestation has been addressed. My thesis tries to answer how photographic evidence surveyed reflect, deny or obscure the position of Knanks within their own country and the process of acculturation and identity building in New Caledonia

Full textThe beginning of the realism expressed in Spain in the form of costumbrism, from the Spanish “costumbre”; custom, habit, tradition, an artistic trend which pretends to make the work of art a reflection faithful to the customs and social uses of a country or region. Pedro Antonio de Alarcón (1833 - 1891) undoubtedly represents the transition from the costumbrism to the Spanish realism itself. El sombrero de tres picos, El capitán veneno, El niño de la bola, El clavo, La pródiga and El escándalo represent the best aspects of the style of Alarcón. In the history of cinema, the realization of adaptations of literary texts appears as a constant. Indeed, between the 1920s and the 1960s these six novels, the most popular of the writer, prove to be the most well-received filmic adaptations of the public. These novels tell stories imbued with symbols and fantasies on a realistic background. Throughout the narratives, characters, descriptions and language reveal the personality of the author, his thought, his ideology and his temperament. The atmosphere and the scenery of the work are those of his native city, Guadix. The novels of Alarcón seem to find their inspiration in real stories past, lived, read, or told in the childhood of the author. In his novels, the narrative keeps spellbound by its illustrated and picturesque suggestions. His works have inspired musicians, directors and even film directors. The object of the study is the comparative analysis of six films. The main objective of this work is the verification and observation of the various costumbrist and anthropological correspondences and the differences between the six films and the homologous novels. In the analytical study of four sequences in each of these film projections, it seems logical and necessary to consider the testimony of traditions and the historical context of the period in the romanticized stories and the respective films. This study seeks to investigate the various social codes, the various customs of the author's time as well as the traditional folklore and the visual spaces or realities of the writer's environment present in his works and for some of them still existing today. The political and social context of the post-war years and the Francoism encouraged the dissemination of conservative traditional, religious, educational, values through cinema, which influenced the favorable reception of films with moralizing objectives. The various interpretations evoked by the analysis try to address problems, in particular: Does the cinematographic production in any way respect the traditions and folklore suggested in the nineteenth-century novels? Can cinema serve as a corpus of testimony to anthropological and multicultural studies ?

Full textAlthough the paparazzi is the poor relation in the history of photography, it is a precious source of inspiration for cinematographic and televisual fictions. Already a character before appearing on screen, the paparazzi establishes a tension, both narrative and visual, that encourages an exploration of its forms of representation. Supported by a collection of films and western television series, from 1940 to 2008, this work will identify and analyze the reoccuring ways in which the paparazzi is represented, from a socio-historical and cultural perspective. Seducer, savior… hunter, thief ? Returning to the imaginary world which surrounds the camera and the hybrid quality of its use allows one to understand how theimage of a « bad » photographer is built. Anonymous croud or main character in the story, half-animal, half-machine, the different faces of the paparazzi on screen both enlighten and threaten the star’s humanity. At a time when the chance of reaching celebrity status are as high as the odds of « acting like a paparazzi », works of fiction reveal a struggle to the deathin which each party fights for a new absolute value : visibility

Full textThis research initially consisted of the production of documentary films and a collection of vernacular images produced in the "Gypsy Quarter" ( "ţigănie") of Diţeşti, a village in the south of Romania. From the start of this investigation, my interlocutors informed me that their ţigănie is populated by images; telenovelas, domestic pictures, “commissioned home movies”, etc. Each filmed situation is therefore the subject of intense negotiations between practices and contrasting filmic experiences. This work is based on a description and the reconstruction of the lived experiences, sedimented with images of my interlocutors. By observing the ramifications of this work, both in the social world and in a history and ecology of images, it has progressively taken the form of an investigation by the filmic arts, a visual and digital history of Gypsy figures of the Romanian cultural industries and an archeology of vernacular film practices in ţigănie. Although the scale of the analysis is that of a monograph, the challenge of this work is to show how this form of experience reconfigures the practice of filmic arts and broadens the phenomenal field of different research traditions that constitute the field of Visual Anthropology ("experimental ethnography", Indigenous media and ethnographic film). In short, this set of visual and textual proposals considers the filmic arts as analytical tools for understanding and making understood the lived experience of filmed people and the agentivity of images in the social world we inhabit. What this thesis proposes, both in its hypothesis and conclusion, is to consider both filmmakers and the anthropologist’s interlocutors as true observers and theoreticians of images and experienced realities. Thus, by understanding images through the experience of the respondents’ images, this research demonstrates the way in which the filmic arts - as a practice and a discipline - generate new anthropological questions. In addition, and more critically, this knowledge of images invites us to reconsider attentively the way in which anthropologists (and filmmakers) sometimes delegate the descriptive, memorial or transactional functions of images to visual technologies

Full textThe purpose of this survey is to assess the counterculture’s contribution to the American cinema through the films directed by Dennis Hopper, chosen for his sympathy for the Movement. His filmography is explored in the light of Theodore Roszak’s 1969 essay. Famous as an actor, Hopper has demonstrated an interest in visual arts, expressed in a continuous creativity in the fields of painting and photography, which shapes his film work. It is legitimate to draw parallels between his artistic choices and various art movements of the 20th century. While Hopper’s aesthetic options originate in the national heritage, his thematic concerns pertain to the counterculture’s claims. The oppositional nature of the Movement is rendered by the dual structure of patterns, both in form and in theme, and by the representation of deviant behaviour. These serve a strategy for the reenchantment of a world threatened by the growing grip of technocracy. Borne by the Movement’s set of values, Hopper is also driven by his own vision. The survey of his characters reveals a difficulty in breaking away from older models, imposed by classic Hollywood, which inspired him, and by his background. Thus the modes of protest that have become most relevant today are precisely not those that he has most thoroughly explored. The comparison with other careers attempts to prove the existence of a collective venture, to describe its evolution over the 69-94 period, and to trace its potential heritage

Full textThis thesis is part of a desire (intends) to understand mobile cinema, made with a mobile device, in the contemporary landscape of the "mobile culture", understood as the set of social uses associated with mobile devices connected to the Internet producing and exploring texts, images, social media publications, etc. We analyzed it as an artistic but also behavioral and social phenomenon, through the uses and the interests (betting, implications) associated with it, especially to those related to innovation. We have done a series of interviews with professionals connected with the pocket cinema. Pocket cinema appears as a cinematographic mode of expression accessible to any individual with a mobile device, who has widely used new resources of dissemination via the Internet and has become part of a contemporary trend of the creative economy. We analyze the distribution of pocket films on video platforms on the web and in festivals dedicated to mobile images between 2005 and 2015. Mobile images have multiplied (selfies, videos), exposing even in a more intimate context. We reflected on the proliferation of mobile images, creativity, amateur practice and the position of the pocket cinema in the face of traditional cinema. With the culture of participation and collaboration, mainstream media have absorbed mobile images published on social media, a new way of collaboration focused on journalism. Finally, the mobile culture evolves rapidly and raises many questions, in particular about virtual reality and the use of the image as a language of communication

Full textRelying on the specific material characteristics of the film medium, the works brought together in this study attempt to describe or depict the spacetime continuum. Filmic continuity is the continuity resulting from a camera recording and, in some respects, it resembles or is similar to the continuity of reality. Whenever a phenomenon is recorded, its spacetime coherence is at the same time transformed and preserved. By recoursing to filmic capture, the filmic devices of this corpus seek to appropriate reality as a material. Artists, when they cut and reorder filmic material, get around the inexorable quality of our spacetime condition and try to reveal otherwise inaccessible dimensionalities. Films supplant their original bidimensionality and take shape; they are tubes, ellipses, anamorphoses, sometimes to the point of becoming prehensible objects. This process of filmic transformation seeks to be as continuous as possible, with no breaks or tears, through topological distorsions. Filmic capture, being anchored in the territory, also makes it possible to appropriate time and space on a planet-wide scale. The viewing machine is sometimes globalized, and shooting is carried out remotely using a webcam with the operator thousands of miles away. The continuity paradigm is thus modified, for the filmic mechanism is pulled in two directions. Images become tools for measuring and deciphering the planet; films are then geodesic in nature, i. E. They contribute towards a poetic measurement of the globe

Full textThis thesis aims to study the nature of links between fixity and motion that have been established all along the history of optical image, from its origins up to its most recent forms. In the digital era, the boundaries between image categories or states are opening up obviously. In particular in some artistic interactive animations, optical image is not necessarily a fixed picture or a moving picture anymore. Its seems to be, paradoxically and more and more, both at a time. The nature of image is not characterized by its state anymore since this one from now on is variable. Furthermore, it seems that the divide « fixed picture versus moving picture » has not always been in effect. A retrospective and panoramic look of optical image teaches us that it has always been questionned by close, specific and fecund links between both states. This hypothesis is borne out through a historical, aesthetic and technical study of photographic image in connection with movement, of optical moving picture in its constituent fixity, and at last of optical interactive image as fixed-moving picture. It relies on many pictures, works, devices, forms and figures that get from camera obscura to interactive animations, and that all tend to underline the paradoxical nature of optical image

Photography, considered at the same time a practice, a custom, a material and symbolic exchange artcle, a mean of personal enhancement, occupies here a central and determining place in the relations that the anthropologist maintains with her field. A photography is, in itself, a specific representation : it is a result of the interaction between the photograph and the photographed subject. The "reader" of the picture has also his own subjective system of perception. On account of her photographic practices, the photographer practices, the photographer finds herself invested, by the Jewish women of Tunisia, with diverse and varied roles which allow her to understand better certain aspects of the social relation characteristic of this population : self mise en scène, the "evil eye", the rivalries, "good deals", women sociability, the religious ceremonies, pilgrimages of Lag baO mer in Israël and in Tunisia, etc. These different regards help to understand the mediatory function of photography in a field in anthropology
