Ilustraciones para un cortometraje. Alejandro Tarazón 2 RESUMEN Este proyecto consiste en la producción artística de catorce ilustraciones que representan la figura humana masculina con una carga sensual implícita. Los referentes para las ilustraciones son fotografías de revistas. El medio de exploración y experimentación que se ha utilizado son las técnicas del dibujo con el objetivo de profundizar en la búsqueda de un lenguaje gráfico personal. Como resultado, para la materialización de la obra definitiva, la técnica empleada ha sido la acuarela. Este conjunto de ilustraciones surge como un encargo por parte de un estudiante de dirección de cine, que me encomienda realizar una serie de dibujos para formar parte del decorado de su próximo cortometraje. Estas obras, a diferencia de otros elementos del decorado, cumplen un papel fundamental tanto en la estética como, especialmente, en el desarrollo de la narración.

  • The Present Status in Gay Art Is Null – Givens
    “THE PRESENT STATUS IN GAY ART IS NULL. I DIS-A-GREE!”: CARL CORLEY’S LIFE AND WORK by HANNAH GIVENS A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of the University of West Georgia in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master’s in History CARROLLTON, GEORGIA 2017 ABSTRACT HANNAH GIVENS: “The Present Status in Gay Art is Null. I Dis-a-gree!”: Carl Corley’s Life and Work (Under the direction of Dr. Julia Brock.) In recent years, the field of queer history has become increasingly interested in pulp fiction as a site of identity and community-building in the 1960s. However, pulp novels are often not preserved and their authors remain anonymous or secretive. Similarly, the field of Southern queer history is relatively new and offers limited sources for understanding regional distinctiveness. This paper and project focus on the Southern author and artist Carl Corley, using his work archived at Duke University. As a gay pulp author and artist from Mississippi and Louisiana who published under his own name, Corley is both a unique and a potentially representative figure. This essay outlines Corley’s unique perspectives as shown in his novels, with particular attention to how Southern attitudes compared with the rest of the country. The public history project associated with this research is the website www.carlcorley.com, presenting digital scans of Corley’s art and novels in partnership with the David M. Rubenstein Rare Book & Manuscript Library at Duke University. Using this site, the public will be able to explore the work in its own right, while historians, literary scholars, and other professionals will also benefit from research access.
