Dibutades , Drawing, Shadows, ProjectionAbstract
This paper revisits the legend of Dibutades, told by Pliny the Elder from the point of view of the language of drawing. The purpose is to analyze the main founding elements of this story, such as shadows, inscription and projection, and their relations with a phenomenology of drawing. The path that transforms the legend of origin of painting into origin of drawing, while reinforcing its mythical character, prepares the autonomy of this language in art.
