Resumen de Por um cinema que não faça ver Vida e arte:: original ou cópia, real ou representação emCopie Conforme, de Abbas Kiarostami
Art and life overlap to their highest degree in Abbas Kiarostami’s “Copy Conforme” (2010): in terms of meaningproduction and anthologies and applicants questions about the notions of origin, copying, reproduction, imitation,real, representation, identity, originality, authenticity, authorship and so on. By outlining this inventive parallel bymeans of a non-narrative, a non-disclosure and a subtle reversal of roles in the act of interpretation, Kiarostamimakes us co-authors of the artwork, where neither copy, nor the original, has value in itself. The value would lie onthe eyes, on the memory and on the elements that each individual bestows upon the artwork and life. Theories byWalter Benjamin, Hillel Schwartz and Jean Baudrillard, who problematized issues concerning the binomials original/copy, real/representation, seem to hold a dialogue on the screen with the director’s propositions.
