Initial propositions for thinking a performatic photography

Abstract

This article is part of a post-graduate research aiming to think photography as performative, taking the documents of the interventions of Gordon Matta-Clark, as well as Atget, Moholy-Nagy and Duchamp as a starting-point. The approach is based on photography understood as subjective knowledge, related to memory and perception, not purely visual, allowing a fragmentary and non-evolutionary conception of art.
