Abstract
CAMPOS, Daniela Queiroz. Atlas Mnemosyne and Moodboard. The History Art in dialogue with the visual research in Design. Revista Convergências [online]. 2020, vol.13, n.25, pp.47-56. Epub May 31, 2020. ISSN 2184-0180. https://doi.org/10.53681/c1514225187514391s.25.10.
This essay aims to propose a dialogue between art history and the visual research in design. The visual research in design, more or less, uses an associative board of images. The Semantic Panel is the methodological tool used by professionals of various qualifications in design. However, even though such a mechanism of visual references is widely used by the area, it lacks relevant theoretical production. Different areas of knowledge also use board to associate images and some of them produced interesting theoretical reflections. German art historian Aby Warburg produced relevant sets of imagery panels that sought to contribute to image research: the Atlas Mnemosyne. Issues proposed by art historian Aby Warburg are suggested for the iteration and renewal of the Moodboard. The Atlas Mnemosyne is an image associative board, just as the Moodboard, however their assemble and purposes distinguish. The goal of this essay is to integrate some issues if the Atlas - as the assembly and its flexibility- to the Moodboard. Such issues would add the change and renewal character to the Moodboard, which would be more open to change and improvement throughout the various project phases.
