REASONS AND EMOTIONS OF THE IMAGES
The proposal tries to problematize the social place of the image at present as a carrier, producer, and reproductive of emotions. Today, individual and collective subjects devote time and resources to the development, circulation and management of a set of associations between the images that identify them and the emotions they evoke. In addition, the content of presentation and appearance of the images has been enhanced by the technical facilities for its construction and socialization. In consonance, the emotions that indicate, brag and make visible the images, constitute a central aspect of the construction of our societies. Thus, the representations about what we are are directly linked to the set of emotions we want to provoke in others, in relation to our identities and desires.
The submitted works should be related to the different images -photographic, pictorial, cinematographic and videographic- and, therefore, with the aesthetic, the advertising, the political, the marketing, the religious, the face-to-face interactions and the performances or representations of everyday life Specifically, we propose the following topics:
