Resumo
This thesis discusses the representations of the body by science and art. We aim to understand the status that photographs acquire in this context. The corpus of this investigation is defined by photographic portraits of sick people made in the mid-1950s by the Bulgarian artist, photographer and doctor Konstantin Christoff (1923-2011) in Montes Claros-MG. The central emphasis of the research is based on these images and on the possible relationships with other representations of the sick body. Thus, the scientific photographs are compared to those that are guided by artistic practices. From these intersections between representations of the body by art and science, produced through the perceptions of Konstantin Christoff (both an artist and a doctor), this thesis reflects on the object-body and the image-body, arguing that scientific images can also be aesthetically considered.
