Un modelo de análisis de prácticas culturales. El caso del cortometraje Colombiano Los retratos, de Iván Gaona

Abstract

Upon the development of a research about the representations of art, it is intended to speci-fy the analytical challenges proposed by syncretic and multimodal signifying practices, such as films. In order to solve the problem of immanent analysis of such mediations and semiotic objects, it is used the model that Jacques Fontanille proposed to address the levels of relevance on the cultural practices. Such model is presented through the analysis of the Colombian film Los retratos (The Portraits). This work demonstrates the relevance of the analytical method for treating the different layers that affect cultural object, understood as signifying practice, and characterized by the constitutive complexity.
