- W2807346061 abstract "The thesis emerged from two streams. First, from an interest in portraiture.Both the portrait as an art object and portraiture as a social process aremediated by power relations, yet, despite this, it is a genre that has beenrelatively underexplored by sociology. Second, as a response to calls withinthe sociology of art for approaches that, rather than maintaining a distance,seek to take the artwork “seriously” as a source of “social knowledge that isof its own worth” (Harrington, 2004, p.3). Explorations of the ‘affordances’that material objects provoke in socially situated subjects reflect this interestin capturing the ‘in-itself-ness’ of the art object in ways which are “congruentwith social constructionism” (De la Fuente, 2007).These two streams inform the thesis’ three aims, addressed through threecase studies of five 20th Century portraits. First, to present portraiture and itsrelations of power to the sociological gaze. Second, to develop an empiricalapproach, characterised as ‘taking a line for a walk’, that seeks to keep inplay: the material properties of the image and what these may afford to asituated viewer; to explore how these affordances operate to constitute thesubjectivities of the individuals portrayed and the artists; and to considerhow these processes play out in and through the processes of consecration ofthe object and artist within the cultural field. Third, to make a contributionto understanding how to capture sociologically the ‘in-itself-ness’ of the artobject.The thesis suggests the value of an approach that keeps in focus the art objectand the context of its circulation, helping to deepen understanding of theoperation of the field. Second, it reveals portraiture as an exercise of power,including in the constitution of the subjectivities represented in and throughthe portrait. Third, it suggests the continued difficulties of empiricallycapturing the ‘in-itself-ness’ of the art object." @default.
