Estética de lo popular en el cine de Joris Ivens y Aldo Francia. Resignificar la memoria y patrimonio de Valparaíso

Two pioneering filmmakers, Joris Ivens and Aldo Francia, redefined the aesthetic representation of Valparaíso through their groundbreaking works from the 1960s and 1970s. Their films, 'A Valparaíso' and 'Valparaíso mi amor,' captured the city's popular culture, challenging conventional narratives and highlighting its material and immaterial heritage. By analyzing the filmic language used by these artists, this study reveals a lesser-known dimension of Valparaíso—a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2003—that transcends historical valorization. The research underscores how their cinematic approach not only questions established aesthetic patterns but also consolidates the city's collective memory, offering a new lens to understand its rich, yet often overlooked, patrimony.
