OLAVE-ARIAS, Giohanny. Intericonicity and Discursive Memory of Piety in a Visual Literacy Experience. []. , 57, pp.115-129.   01--2023. ISSN 0123-4870.  https://doi.org/10.17227/folios.57-14596.

This paper reports the results of a didactic experience carried-out with master's degree students of Art Criticism at Universidad Nacional de las Artes (Argentina) to approach the social and historical aspects of iconographic series about Christian piety. The methodology used was the design and execution of a didactic sequence on the notion of intericonicity and its application for the postgraduate training of the art critic based on a dialogic pedagogy model with the use of manual records in a field diary and a subsequent reflection oriented toward the determination of emerging inductive categories. Two of these categories are proposed in the results: collective visual evocation and seriation, both in terms of didactic exercises through which conceptions emerged in the classroom about the idea of female versus male; maternal versus conjugal filial relationships; and the mystical-religious versus the material-sensual. In each of these axes, the visual series proposed in the didactic exercise the creation of relationships between dominant social discourses and the memory of the images provided. We concluded that critical visual literacy could teach the conception of images as discourses that activate individual, collective and social memories, and that could pose the challenge of understanding iconographic formulas that mobilize emotions and visual genealogies within each culture.
