The present paper has the central aim of examining action themes in photography, exploring it as a sample of Henri Cartier-Bresson and Pierre Verger’s works. In such an iconographic corpus, we seek the ways in which the original motionlessness of photographs might be invested in terms of a narrative construction, especially when we analyze the aspects of plastic investment of these visual clichés. From the standpoint of this inquiry, we imagine to derive the most important keys for the analysis of style in photographic expression.
Key words: photography, plasticity, action.Downloads
