EL ÁLBUM ILUSTRADO MODERNO Y SU INTERACCIÓN CON LAS NUEVAS TECNOLOGÍAS

Abstract

[EN] The final project of the master’s degree (TFM) is about the daily life objects and their trajectories with the art practice; meanwhile, it intends to offer an alternative way of looking at the daily life objects that inspire us toward the art. Moreover, it considers that the investigation of the project is journey that contains the search and the encounter, the same as the process of artistic creation. In the theoretical part, it focuses on the origin of ready-made and its evolution in the history of art. It also talked about its relativity to the insignificant in our daily life as the practice of arts. During the fifties, the interaction between the East and the West, a few artists began to take interest in the idea of Zen and pay attention to the daily life objects. The creation of arts became a process of meditation on their environments. Regarding these issues, it would also talk about some related artists. As for the second part, the analysis of the works created during the period of the investigation was carried out, and it also discussed how the ideas began, developed, processed and evolved. We recognize that the works of arts not only serve as a means of expression for the artist, but also establish an alternative way of seeing for the viewers.

[ES] Consideramos que el potencial comunicativo como referente cultural del álbum ilustrado impreso, se verá reforzado por las nuevas tecnologías en los próximos años. Tanto por la combinación de técnicas tradicionales y digitales que dan lugar a infinidad de resultados, como por el uso de internet y las diversas plataformas sociales, que permiten la difusión de las obras a prácticamente cualquier rincón del mundo que cuente con dicha tecnología. Por otro lado, la aparición del e-book no supondrá ninguna amenaza para el libro-objeto, porque a pesar de tener similitudes en cuestiones de skeumorfismo con los libros impresos, tienen potenciales diferentes en cuanto a su soporte y configuración. Durante la tesina se desarrolló un álbum ilustrado para un público amplio de tirada corta en formato impreso, con una serie de ilustraciones haciendo uso de medios digitales y analógicos, y con una temática polémica en la literatura infantil: la muerte.
