Resumen
Entre la segunda mitad del siglo XIX y los primeros años del XX, los sucesivos desarrollos en el campo de la tecnología parecieron convertir al movimiento en una suerte de condición fundamental de todas las artes. En efecto, este período se caracterizó por una creciente proliferación de aparatos ópticos y por un profundo cambio en la concepción del movimiento físico y en la naturaleza de la percepción, que produjeron un fuerte impacto en el panorama cultural de Occidente. En este trabajo estudiaremos una serie de técnicas y procedimientos con base fotográfica que, hacia la segunda mitad del siglo XIX, sirvieron para transmitir la idea de movilidad en una imagen única y fija. Intentaremos poner en evidencia cómo la reproducción del movimiento y la voluntad de representar el fluir del tiempo no fueron prerrogativas del cine, sino que ya aparecían preanunciadas en toda una serie de técnicas y formatos tan heterogéneos como la exposición múltiple, la multifotografía o la fotografía panorámica, entre otros. Dado que este ensayo se inserta dentro de una investigación mayor que aborda las múltiples relaciones que vincularon a la fotografía y al cine en la Argentina de fines del siglo XIX y principios del XX, el foco del presente trabajo remite sobre todo a la iconografía producida o circulante en este particular contexto espacio-temporal.
Between the second half of the 19th century and the first years of the 20th century, successive developments in the field of visual technology created the sensation that movement was a fundamental condition of all the arts. In fact, this period was characterized by the proliferation of optical devices and by a deep change in the conception of physical movement and in the nature of perception, which produced a strong impact in the cultural panorama of the West. In this work we analyze a series of techniques and procedures with photographic base which, towards the second half of the 19th century, served to convey the idea of movement in a single still image. We will try to prove that the reproduction of movement and the will to represent the flow of time were not prerogatives of cinema but were already present in a heterogeneous series of techniques and formats, such as multiple exposure, multi-image or panoramic photography, among others. Since this essay is comprised within a broader research work which analyses the very numerous relations between photography and cinema in turn of the century Argentina, the focal point of the work lies on the iconography produced or consumed in this particular time and place.
