Este estudo traz para a discussão, no primeiro capítulo, o mangá como expressão artística, cujo modelo de criação se distingue dos demais quadrinhos pela pluralidade e diversidade de gêneros.

Abstract:

In this essay, I study Toriyama Sekien’s yōkai (supernatural beings) catalogues and undertake a diachronic examination surrounding Sekien's imprint on his contemporaries and modern times, striving to highlight the aesthetic dimension that adds to the popularity of yōkai today. Through an image analysis based on a modified version of Roman Jakobson's communication model and a diachronic examination of Sekien’s influence on the imagination of the Japanese people, I have investigated how and why Sekien chose to depict yōkai in his catalogues as kawaii (cute). The questions that have driven my stu

Abstract:

Cuteness as an affect contains a group of visual and behavioral features which are capable of producing physical or emotional reactions in the body of a subject.  Speaking of cuteness as an aesthetic category this kind of response is manipulated for commercial purposes, in the context of artistic creation or as means of self-expression.  In my thesis I will be concetrating on the concept of cuteness and its use in the field of contemporary art.

This project explores my relationship with elements of Japanese culture. Central to the project will be the Japanese practice of cosplay (dressing in costume), otaku (geek) subculture and their influences in the worlds of Japanese manga comic books and animated films. It will focus on the importance of kawaii (cute) in Japanese culture. The artworks will explore notions of identity and the ‘space between’.

Abstract:

In the mid-1990s, Japanese artists Mariko Mori (b. 1962) and Takashi Murakami (b. 1967) began creating works that referenced Japanese popular culture tropes such as sexuality, technology and the idea of kawaii, or cute. These tropes were associated with emerging youth cultures instigating a “soft rebellion” against social conventions. While emancipated female youths, or shōjo, were criticized for lifestyles based on the consumption of kawaii goods, their male contemporaries, the otaku were demonized for a fetishization of kawaii girls and technology through anime and manga, or animation and co

Abstract:

Upbringing and psychological make-up inspire individual norms for beauty and cuteness. The mannerist approach in my work is a product of the figural liberties found in cartooning, illustration and art history. By altering facial and bodily features, I relate the proportions of an infant to cuteness and innocence. However, I tailor the photographs to empower the subjects all the while mirroring trends in contemporary pop culture. I'm interested in themes of everyday life, vitality and emotion placed in obscure, imaginary or exaggerated venues. I fictionalize subjects of my reality to compel vie

From the study regarding the high usage frequency of “Kawaii,” such as the result of Inoue’s study in 1995, it is seen that the meaning of the word of the term “Kawaii” has been changed. And, the term “Kawaii” is usually shown in the female fashion magazines that are mainly sold for 10 or 20 year olds. However, many studies researched how the term “Kawaii” is used in the female fashion magazines, and most of the studies discussed the term “Kawaii” in its concep

Ce mémoire propose de mettre à jour l’impact d’une culture visuelle donnée dans la formation et la construction d’une identité féminine japonaise. L’idéal en question, connu sous le nom de kawaii, prône le caractère mignon, adorable et enfantin de la gent japonaise. Les représentations féminines y étant rattachées diffèrent en fonction des lieux et des clientèles visées. Ces différents façonnements ont par la suite une influence prépondérante sur la vision, la perception et l’acceptation sociale des Japonaises, notamment face à leur identité, mais aussi face aux rôles qu’elles entretiennent da

Abstract:

Although both the sensibility to kinderschema (baby schema) and the nurturing instinct are biologically innate, the formulation of the concept of “cute”, and its first cultural manifestations, are relatively new: they date back to the beginning of the 20th century, along with a subtle, yet significant, reformulation of the social role of the child and infancy. With the emergence of the kawaii culture in Japan, in the early 70s, the concept gains a newfound vigor, rising to the status of a national obsession that reveals the intrinsic relation between cuteness and the traumas that shaped

Compared with endorsers, spokes-characters can be fully controlled by marketers and are considered as less risky in brand strategy. Previous research shows that a cute face is perceived as more trustworthy than a mature face, and thus, is more likely to induce agreement with the message. Based on the previous research of the cuteness effects, we develop hypotheses of how different spokes-character trait, brand-customer relationship and message tone affect advertising effectiveness.
