Photography and painting day
Photography and painting: a complex relationship
We propose a morning session to show the different links that photography has had with the plastic arts since its beginnings, when some authors declared it to be "auxiliary to painting". In those early years, photography evolved in parallel with the influence on painting, at a time when the latter was turning its gaze towards naturalism and the influence of light. In addition to this, various photographers produced their works to provide models for plastic artists.
The contributions to the conference are intended to show the mutual influence between the two arts:
