TITLE:
Visual&nbsp;Correspondence: A Journey&nbsp;through the Image

KEY WORDS: concrete.&nbsp;Semiotics.&nbsp;Photography.&nbsp;Visual poetry.

INTRODUCTION:
Visual poetry&nbsp;is&nbsp;a&nbsp;kind of poetry&nbsp;in which&nbsp;the images are&nbsp;responsible for forwarding&nbsp;the&nbsp;poetic&nbsp;sense,
without relying on the&nbsp;written or&nbsp;spoken&nbsp;about that, as&nbsp;in it's own&nbsp;image is the&nbsp;text.&nbsp;This transmission
through the&nbsp;poetic&nbsp;form was&nbsp;the hallmark of&nbsp;the concrete movement,&nbsp;emerged&nbsp;in 1950, whose&nbsp;goal was to bridge the gap&nbsp;between form and content,
emphasizing&nbsp;a&nbsp;rational way of&nbsp;doing art, giving more importance&nbsp;to reason and&nbsp;science.&nbsp;However, the&nbsp;hallmark of the&nbsp;movement is the&nbsp;image enhancement&nbsp;in union&nbsp;with the word, forming a&nbsp;very expressively.&nbsp;Thus, based on&nbsp;that inspiration&nbsp;concretely, this&nbsp;research is guided by
the&nbsp;semiotic
theories&nbsp;that
talk&nbsp;about
the&nbsp;communicative&nbsp;expressiveness&nbsp;of photography&nbsp;and aims to analyze
the&nbsp;presence
of&nbsp;poetic
content&nbsp;in
the work of&nbsp;photographer Chris&nbsp;Orwing, considering it&nbsp;a form of&nbsp;visual poetry.

OBJECTIVES:
Analyze the presence of
poetic content in the photographic image.

MATERIALS AND METHODS:
This is a bibliographic
research on poetic content in the photographic image and its first step is to
conduct a brief history of the movement concrete and visual poetry.&nbsp;The next step focuses on researching the views of
semiotic studies over the image in general and particularly in the photographic
image.&nbsp;Next is presented the work of poet and
photographer Chris Orwig and his proposal to construct a poetic through the
photographic image.

RESULTS
AND DISCUSSION:
Poetry has many ways of
manifesting itself as there are ways to express themselves.&nbsp;She has different ways according to culture and time
that produces and may appear almost anywhere.&nbsp;Chris Orwig, a photographer, has proposed the
development of visual poetry through images, viewing in common between poetry
and photography the ability to convey not only information but also experience
in concentrated form.&nbsp;This proposal requires a critical and
sensitive to the service of poetry, since there are beautiful images that are
not visual poetry, as one of its features is its ability to just focus on
something that little space can be translated as an experiment [1]&nbsp;.&nbsp;This view is the picture according to
Barthes [2] on the drawing power of the image on the concepts of studium and
punctum, because the image can lead to diverse and contradictory feelings in
the beholder and often can not explain the emotion experiencing.

CONCLUSION:
The Concerti’s reordered the
words in the page space, forming images associated with meanings transmitted in
poetic content.&nbsp;Orwig, however, only uses photography to
convey their message poetic, composing his works with images that go beyond the
material, adding meaning and significance of poetry.&nbsp;Its value as a means of expression is unanimous to
increase the size of words and the photographic image in a new language.
