Abstract
El tratamiento sociológico de Pierre Bourdieu sobre la producción y recepción de imágenes constituye un importante hito en la génesis de su obra. Este artículo analiza sus reflexiones sobre los museos y la fotografía teniendo en cuenta su ambición de hallar modelos invariantes, universales, aplicables a contextos concretos. Metodológicamente, hemos revisado numerosos textos y entrevistas suyos que abordan directa o indirectamente el estatuto de las imágenes, así como otras aportaciones clave de su epistemología, y de su concepción del espacio social. Nuestro artículo evidencia cómo el esclarecimiento de su filosofía relacional y disposicional es indispensable para revisar sus observaciones y declaraciones sobre la imagen. Este planteamiento es novedoso en la bibliografía sobre el tratamiento de las imágenes en Bourdieu. Concluimos que, según el sociólogo francés, la significación y las funciones que las imágenes fotográficas tienen para distintos grupos, clases y fracciones de clase está ligada a la incorporación de estructuras objetivas en el seno del espacio social entendido como sistema flexible y dinámico cuya filogénesis debe ser investigada de modo simultáneo a la ontogénesis de los agentes sociales. Complementariamente, el uso de la fotografía por Bourdieu constituye una toma de posición destinada a romper con la dicotomía entre investigación y compromiso.
Pierre Bourdieu's sociological approach of the production and reception of images represents a significant milestone in the development of his work. This article analyzes his reflections on museums and photography, considering his ambition to identify invariant, universal models applicable to specific contexts. Methodologically, we have reviewed numerous of his texts and interviews that directly or indirectly address the status of images, as well as other key contributions to his epistemology and his conception of social space. Our article demonstrates how clarifying his relational and dispositional philosophy is essential for reviewing his observationsand statements on image. This approach is novel in the literature on Bourdieu's treatment of images. We conclude that, according to the French sociologist, the meaning and functions attributed to photographic images have by different groups, social classes, and class fractions are linked to the internalization of objective structures within social space -understood as a flexible and dynamic system whose phylogenesis must be examined alongside the ontogenesis of social agents. Furthermore, Bourdieu’suse of photography reflects a stance aimed at bridging the gap between research and commitment.
