Welcome to Autopsya

At Autopsya we intend to explore alternative ways of communicating information, through images, within the fields of art practice, visual culture, art history, art theory, and their related subjects.

Our intention is to bridge the operational gap between the creation of visual culture and the study of it, by commissioning academic studies constructed primarily through images.

We hope that by emphasising the visual as the main medium of discourse, we can explore new relationships and encourage alternative approaches to the investigation of the visual universe.

Is it possible to divide human cultural production into the subdivisions; ‘Folkloric’, ‘Popular’ and ‘High’ culture or, would you agree with Ticio Escobar that ‘Deep down, all cultural phenomena are essentially hybrid’?

The literalness of film: field and counterfield of the desire in La Morte in Venetzia

Juan Camilo Aljuri studied in the Universidad de los Andes, (Bogotá, Colombia), where he received his BA and Master degrees in History. He worked in the relationships between cinema and history. He taught for a short period of time, and then he was involved with the Ministerio de Educación Nacional (Ministry of Education of Colombia), where he currently works.

Now, denying the rigidity of his profession, he writes in his blog Pan y cines. In the blog, he tries to demonstrate the multiple possibilities of interpretation and writing that the film offers to the non specialized public, under the premise that film is too important to be left to the critics (and social scientists).
