The photographic act from a perspective of the gaze

Authorship SCIMAGO INSTITUTIONS RANKINGS

This article relates photography to the difference that Jacques Lacan presents in Reading Seminar XI: Lacan’s Four Fundamental Concepts of Psychoanalysis, between the eye, the gaze and being-looked-at. This exercise raises the following questions: To what extent may we rely on the character of reliable evidence of reality in photography? In a world dominated by images, what effect does photography have on us, spectators?

Key words:
Psychoanalysis; photography; eye; gaze
