| Summary: | [EN] During the Spanish Exile in Mexico, art criticism was a crucial piece of the Republican cultural policy. Through these texts, published in cultural journals, authors attempted to condemn Francisco Franco’s regime, while legitimizing themselves as the true representants of Hispanic cultural legacy. Among the diverse strategies developed with this aim, the politicization of time and the contestation of linear history are key. This contribution deals with three strategies that underscore exile’s fracture of the spatio-temporal continuum in art criticism. We study three texts published in Mexico at the end of the 1940s by Margarita Nelken, Juan Larrea, and Daniel Tapia. These different approaches to the past, the present, and the future, exceed a monolithic concept of time, and they showcase diasporic fragmentation. |
