Summary: | <p>In this essay, we shall study the aesthetic manifesto as an element frequently used by the Latin American plastic and literary artists during the 1920s and 1940s, and which later influenced the theoretical proposals of the filmmakers who shaped the New Latin American Cinema. We will analyze the uses and practices of this type of texts and their historical development, as well as their political implications over time. We will understand manifestos as a bridge between the different historical periods that marked the development of the arts in Latin America, in literature, in painting, and in cinema.</p> |
