Image, power and body: From disciplinary programming to its own deprogramming based on Diane Arbus, it deals about how the photographic language, in relation to power, has produced the body image. In this research, we have raised issues on how photographers have created manners of seeing and making to see the corporal image in the societies of Michael Foucault (1999) and the control of Gilles Deleuze (1992). The photography, in this context, will be considered as a disciplinary tool, used by several institutions interested in shaping the body, adapting it to the production regime in evidence. We have worked on the hypothesis that the manners of seeing and making the body would work as conceptual softwares, formal and esthetic executed in function of a greater system represented by the discipline. What would happen if the disciplinary software were deprogrammed? Would the deprogramming be a relation of power amongst the photographers themselves? Would the programming be a desubjectivation and the deprogramming a subjectivation process in which photographers would work on their own realities? Unrealities within the reality? We aimed to indentify manners of seeing and making to see a reprogrammed body, real movements of deprogramming, insurgency and disruptive ways within this disciplinary operational software. We highlighted the photographer Diane Arbus as one of these photographers who have problematized the usage of photography under the disciplinary perspective, through relations of knowledge-power. We have Arbus as a nodal point of these relations throughout the photography history. Besides Foucault (1999) and Deleuze (1992), as theoretical support were also taken Flusser (1985), Fabris (2004), Rouillé (2009), Sontag (2004), Soulages (2010) and Kuramoto (2001).
