La Guerra Civil Española supuso un nuevo modo de fotografiar una contienda: se ampliaron tanto la cantidad de imágenes como el repertorio de acontecimientos, adquiriendo la representación de la infancia singular importancia. También en la fotogra-fía doméstica, afianzada a mediados de los años 30, el niño comienza a ocupar un papel central como símbolo de la supervivencia familiar en medio de la catástrofe.Sin embargo, si examinamos el imaginario de la infancia que la guerra nos ha legado constataremos que hoy privilegiamos una serie limitada de imágenes entre las que la fotografía familiar parece no existir o se con-funde con las imágenes de la Historia. El pre-sente artículo se interroga acerca de esta indefinición y esta reducción, explicándolas por dos movimientos aparentemente opues-tos. En primer lugar, un agenciamiento de lo privado con fines políticos e ideológicos y, junto a este, una adecuación de la fotografía privada a códigos establecidos por fotografías de circulación pública, ya fueran informativas o propagandísticas en un paradójico círculo vicioso que ha limitado drásticamente nues-tro panorama visual memorial.
Abstract:
The Spanish Civil War was a new way of taking pictures in a conflict. It extended both the number of images and the subjects represented, where the childhood took a singular importance.
Also, in the family photography at the 30’s, the child started to be symbol of the family survival in the middle of the catastrophe.
Although, if we review the childhood’s imaginary, we will prove that today it is limited of a few images.
Between all these limited staff, family photography seems not to exist or it is mixed with the historical photography.
This paper questions this mixture, which it explains by a paradox: on one hand, it shows how the intimate image it is utilised whit ideological ends. On the other hand, the private images were adapted to the propaganda model of photography.Downloads
