Desde la posmodernidad, la teoría de la fotografía se ha ocupado de la idea de que las fotografías pueden ser entendidas como procesos de significación y codificación cultural. En un contexto artístico interesado por el pastiche, la cita, la deconstrucción y el cuestionamiento de las ideas de autoría y originalidad, el remake se consolida como modo de producción de versiones de iconos pertenecientes al imaginario colectivo, y se convierte en una estrategia representacional recurrente en la fotografía artística actual. Nos reta a reconocer lo que vemos, cuestionar cómo lo vemos, y problematizar cómo las imágenes dan forma a nuestras emociones y comprensión del mundo.Tras desarrollar el concepto de remake, analizaremos sus implicaciones estéticas, narrativas y representacionales en la fotografía escenificada, mediante el estudio de un conjunto de propuestas artísticas recientes que hacen uso de un stock de imágenes preexistentes (especialmente procedentes de la Pintura), reelaborándolas con nuevos enfoques que expresan además un compromiso con el presente.
PALABRAS CLAVE: Fotografía escenificada; remake; arte contemporáneo; deconstrucción; originalidad.
ABSTRACT
Since posmodernism, photography theory has dealt with the idea that photographs can be understood as processes of cultural meaning and coding. In an artistic context interested in pastiche, quotation, deconstruction and questioning ideas of authorship and originality, the remake is consolidated as way of producing revisions of icons belonging to the collective imagination, and becomes a recurring representational strategy in current art photography. It challenges us to recognize what we see, to question how we see it, and to problematize how images give shape to our emotions and understanding of the world.
After developing the concept of remake, we will analyze its aesthetic, narrative and representational implications in staged photography, through the study of a set of recent artistic proposals that make use of a stock of preexisting images (specially from Painting), that then are reworked with new approaches that express a strong commitment to the present.
KEY WORDS: Staged photography; remake, contemporary art; deconstruction; originality.
