De dónde vienen las imágenes

A painter who wonders about the origin of the images; a poet who reflects on the works of other artists; a philosopher who paints while questioning the artist's place in society: behind All the lit screens and Manifesto of the gaze, Antón Patiño ends his trilogy on the theory of the image with Where do images come from, a journey through practice artistic, understood as a form of knowledge and sensory exploration. Patiño tracks the artistic processes where the different layers of creation establish a warp with the collective imagination. The relief of the world, the multiform sensations, the presentiments take shape. The image as vertigo, irruption of the unexpected, estrangement and unconscious drive, from which the transfigured real emerges. It is about achieving answers to concerns that define our historical moment and cross different cultural geographies. Images are integrated, form part of ourselves and unfold as a process and sociocultural construction. Patiño dialogues with the ideas of John Berger, Robert Hughes, Jean-François Lyotard, Georges Bataille, Gilles Deleuze, Walter Benjamin, Peter Handke, Fernando Castro Flórez, María Zambrano, Susan Sontag, Régis Debray or Henri Michaux.
