Resumo:
The research aims to present the concept of iconography as an aesthetic-visual narrative of the sacred, within the framework of a liturgical art of Eastern Catholic tradition based on imagery records present in the Amazon. It considers that the images are artistic forms of communication on some realities, that bring in themselves an overcoming of the literal language for a language interpreted of a certain scene (of somewhere) or context. The knowledge of the historical-cultural context in which the work was produced plays a decisive role, since the sacred with its rites and liturgies are constituted within a nonmetaphorical history, in the survival of its original sense because they survive through the generations to come. (BENJAMIN, 2008). In this way, the iconographic method is inscribed in intersemiology, and refers to literary analysis, in the study of languages and their meanings; In the interpretation of culture; In the decoding of their meanings; Establishes dialogue between word and image; Evidences relationships of norms that typify and systematize their symbols and meanings. In analyzing the image and the languages produced by it, iconography is intended as a method that seeks to construct theoretical perspectives of analysis of reality by a suspicious view of works, given their linkage to social reality. Present in the Amazon, these works survive throughout the ages and their permanence subsists in artistic expressions mainly in the mosaics. Through them it is possible to establish dialogue with the various territorialities of the Amazon, in their rituals and in their liturgies.
