Deslocamentos na percepção do Outro colonial desde a arte contemporânea

Abstract

The article consider the colonized past and the Other on the borders of contemporary photography. The birth of photography was simultaneous to the establishment of anthropology, generating stereotypes and imaginaries about the otherness throughout the nineteenth century, which are present in contemporary photographic representations. Thus, one wonders which imageries and stereotypes created since colonialism are represented in contemporary art through the analysis of the artistic production of Julie Moos and Santiago Sierra, who through their works make new readings and displacements of colonial paradigms in relation to the otherness. Contemporary artistic projects that transgress the old photographic models inherited from colonialism.
