Documento e arte: um estudo imagético do trabalho dos vendedores ambulantes de Caxias do Sul

Abstract

The objective of this Project is to make a combination between documentary photography and Pictorialism through a photo essay made with street vendors from the city of Caxias do Sul, showing, therefore, their work conditions. The guiding question of the project is: ? How can photography, as a imagery narration tool, ilustrate the image of street vendors, combining caracteristics from both documentary photography and Pictorialism in a coherent way? ? The pictures presented were constructed from the combination of more than one picture showing the products that are sold by the vendors and the constant flow of the streets. The conclusion formed from all the fators that were researched and worked on the practical part of this project is that the combination of two diferente areas of photography is plausible and necessary, for it gives a new deeper meaning to the pictures (sic).
