Abstract

This paper investigates how the image was conceived as a form of knowledge of the natural world throughout art history. Initially, the concepts of mimesis, natura naturans, natura naturata, among others, are presented. The relationship between nature and culture and the idea of the image as a reliable representation of the world as opposed to the emotional, artistic expression are discussed. Modifications on the visuality regimes with the emergence of photography, cinema, and electronic image are also presented. Finally, the visual changes caused by man in the landscape are focused, discussing the role of art in the contemporary ecological debate.
