Abstract
KACZAN, Gisela Paola. Visual records of social behaviors and experiences. Pictures of female leisure in Argentinian press photography, circa 1930. Rev. interdiscip. estud. género Col. Méx. [online]. 2018, vol.4, e160. Epub Mar 19, 2018. ISSN 2395-9185. https://doi.org/10.24201/eg.v4i0.160.
This article is aimed at the interpretation of behavioral and social feminine experiences based on a series of photographs from an illustrated magazine of high distribution in Argentina, in the 1930s. Socio-spatial practices and body language attitudes of leisure were studied in a seaside resort, Mar del Plata, located southeast of Buenos Aires Province (Argentina). To explain gender representations, culture and customs of what was allowed and followed as a model, and the way those patterns were socially stereotyped; three variables: gender; body-space situation and the ways of dressing were taken into account. The results are a combination of different perspectives of qualitative character and quantitative data represented in the design of the data graphic.
Keywords : photographic images; female behaviors; leisure practices; body.
