Guerra de imágenes franquistas en España: una aproximación a la iconoclasia institucional

Keywords: iconoclasm, image, visual studies, francoism dictatorship, communication

Abstract

In this article we work on the visual phenomenon of iconoclasm, acting as a positive practice in the current Spanish democracy with the withdrawal, concealment or elimination of symbols, monuments and statues that proliferated during the Franco dictatorship. We present an investigation framed in visual studies, based on Franco's iconography located in public space and the visual program included in the Law of Historical Memory. We highlight the importance of the institutionalization of iconoclasm in Spanish democracy as an inclusive practice that contemplates the resignification of the Francoist scopic regime and the neutralization of images that affect public opinion from their location.
