Sumario:This dissertation approaches the process of the aura disappearance from art works mentioned by Walter Benjamin. For this process better explanation, we must start from the aura very first definition, considering all its inaccuracies and ambiguities, and therefore to consider the conditions that favor its dissolution. The aura theme that Benjamin has in mind is featured on three specific moments. On his first reflections, the author analyzes the aura emergence during the trance experience. However, a more precise concept definition and understanding of the technical reproducibility role for the decline only become possible when Benjamin examines the relationship between the aura and the photography scope. Later, Benjamin will emphasize the developments relevance in industrial breeding techniques to the traditional art crisis and auratic artwork. In this second phase, it is necessary to emphasize that the industrial reproduction technique advent becomes the main reason for the crisis that emerges, and consequently in this context, the author points out the cinema relevance (a post-auratic art), as an agent favoring some specific social transformations. Finally, it remains to explain the reasons that lead the author to consider the reproducibility as a secondary factor in the process of the aura disappearance. In the last stage of our discussion, we will see some transformation in the Benjamins discourse, in which the author attributes the aura dissolution to a perception crisis from modern individuals.
