Description
Résumé:The article proposes to reconstruct the experience of the Workshops of basic plastic militancy carried out by the Argentinean artist Ricardo Carpani, from the agreements and initiatives defined in the meetings of Latin American plastic artists developed in Chile and Cuba between 1972 and 1973, the aesthetic reflection-previous of the artist himself and a local context, marked by the discussion around the limits and scope of art in a revolutionary context. In this way, the present work intends to explain initially the configuration of a tension that is expressed between the topic of "the death of art", thought since the dissolution of the artist – replaced then by a political militant –, and the popular creation, such and how it appears in Argentina since the late sixties. In a second place, analyze how the meetings of plastic artists held in Chile and Cuba, result in a radicalization of the militant attitude of the politicized artist, in which the people as an abstract and homogeneous entity, takes center stage. Attending to this unique experience carried out by Carpani, allows to crystallize a historical moment of the Argentine and Latin American artistic field, in which the political option stresses the traditional concepts of art, artist and creation to its limits.
