Abstract
The current thesis addresses press photography published in Rio de Janeiro's daily newspapers
Ultima Hora and Jornal do Brasil that, during the decades of the 1950's and 1960's, have
experimented with several innovations in text, layout, business strategies, and image use,
especially in photography. In order to stress these transformations relevance, it exams the
photographic practice prior to this period among Brazilian newspapers and magazines, as well
as comparing it with the image production from abroad. It also argues that the valorization of
photography use in this period met both the periodicals and the public's demands, and it
attempts to show how a specific language was created in order to attend the newspapers
editorial interests, trying to conform the readers to image reading, whilst employing it to
differentiate itself from the other newspapers. The thesis also retraces the trajectory of these
professionals in charge of the imagetic production, acknowledging that these press
photographers, who generally came from adverse social class conditions, meanwhile building
a new imagetic language, have edified their own place of distinction within the press and
society. Therefore, it understands the decades of the 1950's and the 1960's as a singular
moment in the modernization of daily newspapers, being photography and photographers the
ones in charge of it, and central to this transformation.
