Abstract

Este trabajo analiza la posición teórico-ficcional que Horacio Quiroga pudo construir frente al arte fotográfico. Quiroga elabora un imaginario que se presenta como tecnología vinculada con la muerte. Dicha idea estaría asociada a la aparición del doble en la imagen fotográfica, puro referente, en el que la connotación (segundo mensaje codificado) transforma a la fotografía (objeto) en lenguaje.

Abstract

This essay analizes the theoretical-fictional position Horacio Quiroga was able to build according to the photographic art. Quiroga develops an imaginary that it shows as technology closely linked with death. This idea would be associated with the appearance of the double in the photographic image, mere referent, in which the connotation (second encoded message) transforms the photography (object) into languaje.
