Resumo: | Two themes, discussed from ancient times in Western philosophical thought, are analyzed: the body´s imagistic representation and its symbolic discursive capacities. The concept of ‘figurative convergence’ will be introduced and developed in the wake of the conceptual articulation of the themes within the general aesthetic theory of sensibility related to new technological media. The emergent dynamics of the body representation and the differences that digital media imposes to the idea of representation will be investigated. There is more than a mere contingent and anchored unique and exclusive relationship between medium and body in the representation of the latter by the former. The essay shows how both reveal structural dynamics of complementarity, related to the figure dominion or to the dominion of material constitution of the mediation processes. So that they may be theoretically conceptually scrutinized, these dynamics require a reformulation of the way body configuration has always been understood by the media as, for instance, in the case of artistic pictorial works. On the other hand, as occurs in the esthetic world of arts, the idea of ‘figurative convergence’ should also evidence suppression forms that attribute a post-figurative statute to the body. |

Tendo em vista a articulação conceptual de ambas, no quadro geral de uma teoria estética da sensibilidade afecta aos novos meios tecnológicos, será aqui introduzido e desenvolvido o conceito de ‘convergência figurativa’, do qual se partirá para repensar as dinâmicas emergentes da representação do corpo e as diferenças que o médium digital impõe à própria ideia de representação. Mais do que ver na relação entre médium e corpo um liame puramente contingente e ancorado, única e exclusivamente, na representação do segundo pelo primeiro, trata-se, inversamente, de mostrar como é que ambos despoletam dinâmicas estruturais de complementaridade, quer estas sejam relativas aos domínios da figuração ou aos domínios da constituição material dos processos de mediação. Porém, para que, teórica e conceptualmente, possam ser escrutinadas, tais dinâmicas exigem uma reformulação do modo como se tem habitualmente compreendido a figuração do corpo pelos media, como, por exemplo, no caso das obras pictóricas artísticas. Por outro lado, tal como acontece no universo estético da arte, a ideia de ‘convergência figurativa’ deve, também, tornar evidente as formas da sua supressão, nomeadamente aquelas que atribuem ao corpo um estatuto pós-figurativo.Universidade Estadual De Maringá2019-12-11info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttp://www.periodicos.uem.br/ojs/index.php/ActaSciLangCult/article/view/4866810.4025/actascilangcult.v41i2.48668Acta Scientiarum.

Two themes, discussed from ancient times in Western philosophical thought, are analyzed: the body´s imagistic representation and its symbolic discursive capacities. The concept of ‘figurative convergence’ will be introduced and developed in the wake of the conceptual articulation of the themes within the general aesthetic theory of sensibility related to new technological media. The emergent dynamics of the body representation and the differences that digital media imposes to the idea of representation will be investigated. There is more than a mere contingent and anchored unique and exclusive relationship between medium and body in the representation of the latter by the former. The essay shows how both reveal structural dynamics of complementarity, related to the figure dominion or to the dominion of material constitution of the mediation processes. So that they may be theoretically conceptually scrutinized, these dynamics require a reformulation of the way body configuration has always been understood by the media as, for instance, in the case of artistic pictorial works. On the other hand, as occurs in the esthetic world of arts, the idea of ‘figurative convergence’ should also evidence suppression forms that attribute a post-figurative statute to the body. |
