Fragmentos roubados: o retrato da incompletude

Abstract

The portrait, as well as the self-portrait, in his pictorial tradition built a type of own speech. The contemporary technologies offered other ways of representation that break with the tradition, at the same time in which they talk to her. How we may read a contemporary portrait? It is the question that looks for these paper from the work of art “50 Hours: Self-portrait Stolen” of the photographer Rocheli Costi. The inter – relations between others texts are, in the aesthetic texts, the mark of the contemporaneousness producing a format of hypertext, which the reading depends on the connections that the reader is going to draw.
