This book raises a series of explorations into the conflicting and prolific relationship between art and left-wing politics during the “long decade” that began in Latin America with the triumph of the Cuban Revolution and closed with the Argentinian coup of 1976. It is the result of an investigation lasting more than 20 years and which is situated today in a radically changed landscape: from being an extemporaneous question that came into fashion, and is now a recurring topic of academic investigation in curatorial departments and certainly in the art market. In the midst of this transformation, the proposed exercise that this book suggests, on the one hand, is the reconstruction of little known episodes that provide density and nuance to a history reduced to a handful of mythologized references (in particular, Tucumán Arde). And on the other hand, likely having an impact on actual disputes about the meaning of those episodes and their ability for dealing with the present.
