This book approaches, from a historical-artistic perspective, the network of relationships that, in a sustained way, shaped the visual thinking of young modern artists in an intense and fruitful dialogue with the ideas and actions of the active reformers between 1933 and 1943. The four chapters account for how these synergistic exchanges resulted on the development of a democratic culture - anti-fascist and anti-dictatorial - and how these concordances can be seen both in the production and activities of artists and reformers in that decade. The four stories in question are approximations around the sculptor Horacio Juárez, the painter and teacher Ernesto Soneira, the engraver and also teacher Alberto Nicasio and the painter and intellectual Luis Waisman and his direct and indirect articulations with reformers, taking into account that established relations develop in different but related circumstances, since the progressive ideas of that time were central to art and education. The reformers mentioned here - Deodoro Roca, Saúl Taborda, Gregorio Bermann, Santiago Monserrat, Juan Filloy, among others - provided modern artists with spaces of reception, support, debate, defense, inspiration, and accompaniment in a decidedly hostile environment. Without being exhaustive, the book aims to make precise contributions to both artistic culture and what has been studied about reformers after the Reformation.
