Abstract

This article is a theoretical reflection about the semiotic nature of photography. As opposed to the structuralist theses of Roland Barthes about the submission and aesthetic dependency of photography, it is considered that the photo image is a semiotic process established between the photographer, the image and the spectator.This process departs from the discursive strategy planned by the photographer which is underlying as a potential meaning in the formal component of the photo. The implicit proposal is updated and receives a specific meaning from the knowledge and the cultural experience of the spectator. This semiotic analysis is based on Strategies for glance (Japan, 2002), a photo work of the Spanish photographer Jaime Segura.
