Abstract

This article develops the theoretical itinerary that, having the communicative nature of the artistic images as the starting point, permits to formulate, with epistemological inputs coming from different semiotic and semiological approaches, the concepts of “artistic text” and “pictorial text”. Such concepts have great importance for the Documentation Sciences, because they permit to consider each artistic image as an aesthetic object bearer of a speech susceptible of being analyzed; to situate each one of them in the context that makes them legible, responding to their origin, use and typology; to investigate the correlations that have place between their aesthetic architecture and the communicative function that they perform; and, finally, to elaborate a model of analysis oriented towards the production of documental representations, which permit to communicate and recover the analyses made within the information systems in which such artistic images are developed.
