Abstract

For many centuries the only art available to men, whose have always tried to be able to impart on some surface the images of their “visions”, was the drawing. The analogic photography (despised initially by the canonic artists) was already a major revolution in the science of representation, however the advent of digital photography has radically altered not only the latter but also the society itself, through a terrific production of images and the possibility of sharing, in real time, on social networks. The very act of drawing today has countless different expressiveness that reflect current technologies. The introduction of tablet and smartphones, and proper applications, allows today to put aside paper and instruments of the art, for beeing projected in a total digital context.
