Rayuela de visiones imaginarias del flamenco

Abstract

The collective imagination has not only caused impact on art and on the spectator but has also changed over time. From literature, intellectuals, composers, researchers, artists until new technologies, have all built a complex of substrates with different intensities that make up the kaleidoscope of artistic visions. This article approaches different visions of flamenco, the social critique of the 98 Generation, a more human side of the romance of Glinka; to new devices, "phono-archaeology" and first photographs of flamenco, focusing on technical and chemicals processes, the world of research: folklore and anthropologists; the gaze of the avant-garde and of Pablo Picasso, and finally to the "founding myth" of flamenco singing "cante jondo" of Falla and Lorca.
