Based on evidence and perplexity that is presented to the painter, this research aims to reflect on the essence of Painting around the subject of Light and Shadow. In a game to see, to reveal and to hide or mask, Painting becomes the place of imperceptible and therein lies its power of fascination. We tried to reflect on what is the relation of this play - revelation and concealment - with the concept of the Sublime, which is not approached by an historical or historicist context, but as an intrinsic reality to the human condition and therefore the reality of the artist. The first part of the dissertation is based on the texts La Peinture, Masque et Miroir, La Montre e Le Lisible et le Visible1 by Jean-Marie Pontévia; the second part invokes Mark Rohtko’s work, studying the Color and the Light as an essential approach to the concept of Sublime.

Apart from the theoretical discussion, this work materialized in a practical experience, which linked the fieldwork (reviewing an Archaeological Map), the treatment of data and community participation, focused on Heritage Education, in a scale - the municipal territory-that promotes closeness and communication. Beyond the addition of new data, resulting in part of the archaeological work developed over the past decade in the context of Alqueva, and now expanded with new field work, some steps, albeit modest, have been advanced in the way archeology dialogues with society Description: Tese de mestrado, Património público, Arte e Museologia, Universidade de Lisboa, Faculdade de Belas Artes, 2013; O anexo 5 são cartas topográficas.

Thus, and as a result of previous experience in the field of photography, this project is the systematization and clarification of the concepts discussed and specifically the photographic self-portrait as fiction. This dissertation aims to deepen and relate the following concepts: the relationship between Nature and the feminine; horizontal body as a place of sleep and death and its relation to horizontality of Earth; the figure of Ophelia and the contemplation of the beauty of death; sleep drowned body: the relation between female and water to the death of a drowned body; the representation of death: from painting and post-mortem photography; the simulation of own death or the self-portrait as ficcion and Ophelia figure as fiction of the self-portrait. Alongside the development and relationship of these concepts, the practical part of this project, resulting in a series of photographs, almost all black and white, in which the figure of Ophelia is present as fiction of self-portrait. It is not intended to represent or recreate this character, it’s from the self-portrait that the figure of Ophelia emerges Description: Tese de mestrado, Pintura, Universidade de Lisboa, Faculdade de Belas Artes, 2013 2013-01-01T00:00:00Z http://hdl.handle.net/10451/8483 Title: A ilustração da Divina Comédia e António Carneiro Authors: Almeida, Pedro Caiado Baltazar Ribeiro de, 1987- Abstract: The Divine Comedy is one of the most illustrated literary works of all time, however, and within this vast subject, there are few records of illustration about this text in Portugal. This study aims to explore the possibilities of the illustration of Hell through a technique that until now has been poorly investigated, and to solve the problems faced in its use. Hell was shown in its entirety for the first time in Portugal by António Carneiro, through forty-two drawings. This project also intends to publicize his drawing project and to further enrich a little the existing studies of this work which, unfortunately and so far, have received little attention and few publications. This existing documentation, allowed us to address issues relating to the origin, motives and methods used by António Carneiro, and to establish a connection with the end result of these drawings which, along with several other works of the various illustrators of Dante, constituted the support of this research. This work placed its emphasis on the strategies of representation with the aim of providing a different view, looking for expressive techniques appropriate to the illustration of Hell, and, like António Carneiro, to contribute to the illustration of the Divine Comedy. It is argued that the intention of António Carneiro when he completed the forty-two drawings of Hell was to later illustrate the Divine Comedy through paintings, but this project would ultimately never materialize. However, the intentions of António Carneiro are unclear and this study suggests some particular difficulties regarding the lack of information. In this study, the aesthetic and expressive potentials of the technique of frottage are discovered, which according to the research conducted here, has never been used to illustrate the Divine Comedy, or, from what is known, as a strategy to illustrate other works Description: Tese de mestrado, Desenho, Universidade de Lisboa, Faculdade de Belas Artes, 2013 2013-01-01T00:00:00Z
