Abstract

It would be difficult to attempt to understand the radicalisation of the Argentinean art scene in the time spanning from the late fifties to the early seventies without turning to the intellectual career of two artists: Ricardo Carpani and León Ferrari. Both men exercised a marked influence over their contemporaries, becoming gravitational centres in the understanding and the development of the connections between art and politics during the period.
