The subject of this research is post-photography, the moment of photography’s expansion, characterized by an increased porosity between media, by the circulation of references, conventions, codes, and pre-existent images, and by the intermediate processing and the possibilities of post-production through digital technology. The main objective is to analyze the relationship between baroque procedures within the cultural environment and the post-photographic practice, through the observation of montage and hybrid forms. Therefore, the problem lies in the way baroque codes relate to changes in the photographic practice. It is a hypothesis that the montage of these images, in a micro structural level, shows use of baroque procedures. Aesthetic distortions, folds in the photographic field, and innovation through mixture and translation, all mentioned in post-photography theory, could be attributed to the baroque tradition. Moreover, the relationship between baroque montage and the Dionysian model of vision will de studied, aiming at investigating the expression of the feminine aspects of baroque as a way of surpassing narratives of identity and opposition. This research is built around Image and Media Theories, and Culture Semiotics. In its attempt to understand this new image paradigm, it will discuss the concept of post-photography in the works of Mitchell (1994) and Batchen (2002), as well as the works of Müller-Pohle (1988) and Baker (2005). The implications of this phenomenon will also be analyzes through from the point of view of Flusser (2008, 2011) and Couchot (1998, 2003) regarding synthetic images. In the filed of baroque theory, it will explore Moser’s the concepts of “valency” and “multi-positionality” (2001), Benjamin’s “dialectical image” (2007), and Deleuze’s “fold” (2001), as well Buci-Glucksmann’s interpretations of these authors (1994, 2001). Also relevant, regarding Latin American baroque, are the works of Pinheiro (2009, 2011), Campos (2001) e Vilatella (2004)
